Federal Judge Halts Plan to Cut Back on Recommended Vaccines for Children
A federal judge has blocked a plan by health officials to reduce the number of recommended vaccines for all children. The changes, which included dropping shots for flu, rotavirus, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, certain types of meningitis, and respiratory syncytial virus from the standard schedule, were halted due to potential rule violations by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior. The ruling also pauses a committee meeting set for this week in Atlanta. Doctor groups, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, had filed a lawsuit over COVID vaccine guidance for kids and pregnant women, and now urge families to follow the previous recommendations. Health leaders plan to appeal the block, but for now, the old vaccine lineup remains in place, allowing parents and providers to plan ahead without major shifts.
