Summary

Trump signed an executive order halting federal funding for schools that require Covid vaccines.

His administration has already ended federal vaccine mandates, reinstated discharged service members, and opposed school mask and vaccine rules.

The move aligns with his campaign promises and has sparked concerns about broader immunization policies, though a spokesperson clarified it applies only to Covid vaccines.

      From the article

      Currently, Covid vaccines are no longer required in K-12 schools across the country, according to two nonprofit health policy research organizations, Immunize.org and the National Academy for State Health Policy.

      The end game is to give his base nothing so they can celebrate a win.

        It doesn’t. And no this isn’t natural selection if it only affected them, it would be one thing. Viruses and diseases don’t work that way.
