Denmark vs. the U.S.: Panic or Proof in Pediatric PolicyWhat happens when we compare vaccine schedules instead of fearing them
In this short but powerful video, Dr. K. Paul Stoller challenges a familiar narrative: that even questioning the U.S. childhood vaccine schedule will lead to catastrophe. Parents are often warned that aligning any part of the U.S. schedule with countries like Denmark would result in outbreaks, overwhelmed hospitals, and widespread harm. But Denmark already exists—and its children are not experiencing the dire outcomes being predicted. Rather than arguing for or against vaccines, this video asks a more fundamental question: Why does comparison itself trigger panic? Denmark follows a different childhood vaccine schedule, with fewer routine shots and different timing, yet Danish children are healthy, their healthcare system is stable, and society is functioning. If comparison alone is framed as dangerous, the issue may not be safety—but control of the narrative. The video invites parents, policymakers, and healthcare professionals to step back from fear-based messaging and return to evidence, transparency, and honest international comparison. Science should welcome questions. Public health should withstand scrutiny. And parents deserve clear answers grounded in reality—not alarm. Watch the Video We encourage you to watch this brief video and decide for yourself whether panic or proof is guiding the conversation. If you value informed consent, critical thinking, and open scientific discussion, share this video with others who believe that asking questions is not dangerous—it’s necessary. A Note from DeeDee (JAM)As Just a Mom, I’ve learned that the most important thing we can do for our children is stay curious, stay grounded, and stay willing to ask questions—even when those questions make others uncomfortable. Watching how children thrive in different countries reminds me that there is more than one way to support health, and that comparison is not rebellion, it’s responsibility. Parents are not reckless for wanting to understand the “why” behind decisions that affect their children’s bodies and futures. We deserve transparency, honesty, and space to think. When we replace fear with facts and trust parents to engage thoughtfully, we create a healthier conversation—and ultimately, healthier kids. #KidsFirst4Ever #InformedConsent #PediatricHealth #VaccinePolicy #MedicalTransparency #CriticalThinking #ParentAdvocacy @AmerAcadPeds
