Donald Trump discusses daily aspirin use and vaccination policies

During a rally in Vandalia, Ohio, US President Donald Trump stated that he takes a daily aspirin, claiming it thins his blood “like crazy,” though he admitted he is unsure of its effectiveness. Trump reportedly rejected medical advice to reduce his dosage, stating he has managed with his current regimen for 35 years. While he referred to a non-existent “386er” tablet, it is believed he meant the standard 325-milligram dose.

In addition to his personal health regimen, Trump has issued a decree to alter the national childhood vaccination plan. The order includes reducing the number of immunizations and separating the combined measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine into three individual components. Trump has expressed skepticism regarding combined vaccines, despite scientific consensus. The move deviates from the global standard of developing immunization schedules based on evolving scientific research and expert consensus.
