Hepatitis B vaccine birth dose reversal

RecordOBS-0575
CategoryHealth/Vaccines
StatusUNPROVEN
SummaryIn December 2025, the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) voted to end the recommendation that all newborns receive the hepatitis B vaccine at birth. This decision was based on unfounded claims and has been criticized by public health experts as dangerous.
OriginThe reversal occurred in December 2025, following the appointment of vaccine critics to ACIP by the Trump administration and RFK Jr.
Claimed
  • The hepatitis B vaccine is unnecessary or unsafe for newborns.
  • The vaccine recommendation should be reversed.
Evidence / consensusThe hepatitis B vaccine is safe and effective, and the birth dose is critical to prevent perinatal transmission. The reversal contradicts decades of evidence and expert recommendations.
> OBSERVER NOTE:
A policy shift that flies in the face of established science. The rationale appears political rather than evidence-based.
