HHS appeals ruling that stalled many of Kennedy’s vaccine policy changes
The Department of Justice is appealing a ruling by a federal judge which stalled many of health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s changes to federal vaccine policy.
The appeal, filed Wednesday, is the latest twist in the closely watched lawsuit filed by the American Association of Pediatrics along with several other professional organizations and several anonymous women. The organizations argued that in reconstituting a federal vaccine advisory committee and changing the childhood vaccine schedule, Kennedy’s health department violated the Administrative Procedures Act, which governs how federal agencies consider and implement policy changes.
