Published 2 weeks ago
Description

Federal Judge Halts Kennedys Vaccine Rollbacks: U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.s plans to scale back childhood vaccine recommendations, including flu, rotavirus, hepatitis A and B, meningitis, and RSV shots, have been temporarily blocked. The judge also halted changes to COVID vaccines for most children and pregnant women. Kennedys overhaul of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, which guides vaccine advice, was found to violate federal procedures. Medical groups raised concerns about weakened defenses against six major diseases. The judge put Kennedys new appointments and related decisions on hold, postponing an ACIP meeting to discuss COVID vaccines and more.
