A medical group filed a lawsuit on Tuesday against the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) and several U.S. health agencies for removing webpages and data from agency websites in recent days.
Doctors for America filed the lawsuit against OPM, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) over the removal of “a range of health-related data and other information used every day” by researchers and professionals. The lawsuit was filed by the Public Citizen Litigation Group on behalf of the medical organization.
