Supreme Court Declines Vaccine Appeals from RFK Jr.-Founded Group

Children's Health Defense's challenges to FDA and Rutgers University vaccine mandates remain dismissed

The Supreme Court refused to hear two cases from Children's Health Defense, founded by Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
The cases challenged the FDA's emergency authorization of COVID-19 vaccines and Rutgers University's vaccine mandate.
Lower courts had previously dismissed both cases, and the Supreme Court's decision leaves those rulings in place.
The group also has a pending lawsuit against several news organizations over claims of antitrust violations related to misinformation.
A separate case challenging Connecticut's removal of religious exemptions for school vaccines was also declined by the court.
