President Donald Trump is signing an executive order at the White House in which he is expected to cut the number of vaccines officials recommend that children in the United States receive from 18 to 11.

The president is signing the order around 2:45 p.m. in Washington, D.C.  It is also set to recommend separating the combined MMR vaccine — which inoculates children against measles, mumps, and rubella — into three separate shots.
