Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. | HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has joined President Donald Trump in a renewed effort to challenge how the United States formulates its childhood vaccine recommendations. In a Request for Information, Kennedy has asked for public comment over the next 30 days on whether vaccine classifications should be adjusted.

Kennedy asks for feedback on new vaccine recommendation categories, how shots are tested.

RFK Jr. seeks to soften CDC vaccine recommendations, shifting flu & meningococcal vaccines to shared decision-making; CDC now covers 11 vs. 17 childhood diseases.
