Federal Judge Allows Lawsuit Against RFK Jr.'s Vaccine Policy Changes to Proceed
A federal judge has decided not to pause a lawsuit challenging U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s decision to reduce the number of recommended vaccines for children. This decision comes as the Trump administration appeals a previous order blocking these changes. The lawsuit, filed by the American Academy of Pediatrics and other medical groups, contests Kennedy's plans to remove certain vaccines from the recommended schedule, including those for COVID-19 and other diseases. The judge's order allows the case to continue in the District Court of Massachusetts, despite the administration's request for a stay during the appeal process.
