The lawsuit alleges that a decision in May to remove COVID-19 vaccines from the federal list of recommended vaccines for healthy children and pregnant women was unlawful.

The suit addresses the scrapping of Covid-19 vaccination recommendations for children and pregnant women and the dismantling an influential expert panel that advises the government on immunizations.

A coalition of doctors groups and public health organizations sued the U.S. government on Monday over the decision to stop recommending COVID-19 vaccinations for most children and pregnant women.
