Federal Judge Blocks HHS from Scaling Back Childhood Vaccine Recommendations
A federal judge in Boston has halted the Department of Health and Human Services from implementing changes to routine childhood vaccine recommendations, proposed by Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior. The judge ruled that Kennedy likely violated federal rules by reshuffling an advisory panel, putting all its recent decisions and appointments on hold. This includes a planned committee meeting in Atlanta. Doctors groups, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, filed a lawsuit in July over shifts in COVID vaccine advice for kids and pregnant women. Health officials in thirty states have already dismissed parts of the new guidelines, while federal leaders plan to appeal the block. The old recommendations remain in place as families and providers await the next court steps.
