The American Academy of Pediatrics and other groups on Jan. 19 filed a new lawsuit against Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and other officials, seeking to reverse the recent update to the childhood vaccine schedule and stop an upcoming meeting of advisers that Kennedy selected.
Plaintiffs say that officials failed to examine relevant data and outline satisfactory explanations for updating the schedule and revamping the advisory panel, which should prompt a federal court to declare the decisions illegal.
