HHS Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. previously said about the new CDC guidance on COVID vaccines: "I couldn't be more pleased to announce that as of today the COVID vaccine for healthy children and healthy pregnant women has been removed from the CDC recommended immunization schedule."

The Department of Health and Human Services sent Congress a document to support Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s decision to change federal vaccine recommendations that cited unpublished or disputed studies and misrepresented other findings,

Among the eight people Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced would make up his new group of outside vaccine advisers to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are an emergency physician who posted Islamophobic commentary on social media and two doctors who were paid to provide expert testimony in trials against a vaccine maker.
