In my humble opinion this is a big step forward and way overdue. The proposed study is to be an observational one, looking at the outcomes of children who were vaccinated according to the recommended immunization schedule, children who were not vaccinated and children who were alternatively vaccinated. And their reason for not looking at this sooner… for fear that a study of this kind may be unethical!
