The Trump administration, RFK Jr. have proposed removing federal recommendations for COVID vaccines for many Americans. That could limit access in NY.

US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced Tuesday that the Covid-19 vaccine will no longer be among the recommended vaccines for pregnant women and healthy children on the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s immunization schedule.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Tuesday announced the removal of the COVID-19 vaccine from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's immunization schedule for "healthy children and pregnant women" -- a move that could alter guidance for doctors as well as some insurance coverage.

Kennedy's move appears to shortcut the CDC's outside vaccine advisers, dropping COVID vaccines from the list recommended for children and pregnant women.

The HHS has removed the COVID shot from the CDC's recommended list of vaccines for these groups. Experts say they're still at risk, and the decision could limit access to the shot.

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. upended decades of standard protocol in announcing that the vaccine would be dropped from the immunization schedule for healthy children.

U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says COVID-19 vaccines are no longer recommended for healthy children and pregnant women.

Kennedy Jr. said Tuesday that his agency would no longer recommend the coronavirus vaccine for healthy pregnant women and healthy children — an unprecedented move that bypasses the traditional system of vaccine advice from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

“By removing the recommendation, the decision could strip families of choice,” said O’Leary. “What is clear is that pregnant women, infants and young children are at higher risk of hospitalization from COVID, and the safety of the COVID vaccine has been widely demonstrated.”

The Trump administration's COVID-19 vaccine policy changes mean anyone who is healthy and under 65 will likely have to pay out of pocket for the shot.
