A handful of leading medical organizations are suing Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. over recent changes to federal COVID-19 vaccine recommendations \u2014 part of what they characterize as a larger effort to undermine trust in vaccines among the American public.<\/p>\n

The groups behind the complaint, filed on Monday<\/a> in federal district court, include the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American College of Physicians and the American Public Health Association.<\/p>\n

The lawsuit centers on Kennedy’s decision to remove<\/a> pregnant women and healthy children from the COVID-19 vaccine schedule in late May. The suit alleges this was “arbitrary” and “capricious” and in violation of federal law that governs how these decisions are made.<\/p>\n

The complaint asks for the court to reverse the changes to the vaccine recommendations and declare them unlawful.<\/p>\n

“Over the past several months, experts have been sidelined, evidence has been undermined and our nation’s vaccine infrastructure is now threatened,” Dr. Susan Kressly<\/a>, president of the American Academy of Pediatrics, told reporters on Monday.<\/p>\n
