Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s authority to change federal vaccine policy is not reviewable by the courts, a Trump administration lawyer said on March 4.

Department of Justice lawyer Isaac Belfer urged U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy during a court hearing in Boston to rule that Kennedy and other health officials have unfettered, unreviewable authority to change vaccine guidance.
