Kennedy, Makary, and Bhattacharya announced on X that they are pulling recommendations for Covid vaccines. They will no longer be part of the childhood vaccination schedule, and they're no longer recommended for pregnant people.

RFK Jr.'s HHS cuts include the entire LIHEAP team. Read that again. The entire team.

Without staff, the program is at risk of grindingto a halt.
