What we can confirm

Authoritative and major-news sources agree that Trump signed an executive order directing federal agencies to reduce the number of recommended childhood vaccines and to split the MMR vaccine into separate shots administered across separate visits. The claim is substantively correct, though 'limit' is a loose paraphrase of the order's recommendations rather than a precise legal description.
