Doctors and Public Health Organizations Sue US Health Officials over COVID-19 Vaccine Policy Change
BOSTON, UNITED STATES, JUL 7 – Health and medical groups challenge the U.S. government for removing COVID-19 vaccine recommendations for children and pregnant women, citing risks of increased preventable illness.
- On Monday, leading medical groups and a pregnant physician filed a lawsuit in Boston challenging the removal of COVID-19 vaccine recommendations for children and pregnant women.
- Kennedy removed COVID-19 vaccine recommendations for children and pregnant women, reversing prior guidance announced via a May 27 social media post and a May 19 secretarial directive.
- Several physician groups, including ACP, report turning away pregnant patients seeking COVID vaccines, causing increased anxiety amid record flu and measles deaths, according to Kressly.
- The plaintiffs seek preliminary and permanent injunctions against Kennedy's vaccine rollback, aiming for a court hearing within weeks and a final order by September.
- Legal challenge tests Kennedy’s removal of vaccine recommendations, risking broader implications for federal health policy and adherence to scientific review processes.
