Jesus on a cheesecake, this is the most dumb timeline ever.

Interestingly, she's claiming she hasn't and won't resign.

Probably not really a limitation, since it is an awfully long list of high risk conditions.

The bigger issue would be whether states pull pharmacists ability to administer it without a physician's prescription.

How soon is the limitation in place?

I wish the CDC continued success in its vital mission and that HHS reverse its dangerous course to dismantle public health as a practice and as an institution.  If they continue the current path, they risk our personal well-being and the security of the United States.“

Well, good for her for managing to hang on long enough for the vaccine.

And as soon as that came out they ousted the CDC Director.

Obesity ought to cover a bug chunk of America.

Safeway is expecting vaccine soon. Pharmacist said if we want it not to wait just come in. Who knows what RFK's worm will do.

So now you're going to have to prove you're at risk to get a COVID shot. Thanks MAGA.

FDA approves updated COVID-19 shots but limits access for some kids and adults. — U.S. regulators approved updated COVID-19 shots Wednesday but limited their use for many Americans — and removed one of the two vaccines available for young children.

The new shots from Pfizer, Moderna and Novavax are approved for all seniors. But the Food and Drug Administration narrowed their use for younger adults and children to those with at least one high-risk health condition, such as asthma or obesity. That presents new barriers to access for millions of Americans who would have to prove their risk — and millions more who may want to get vaccinated and suddenly no longer qualify.

Perhaps that’s why most doctors aren’t recommending it for kids and healthy adults any longer?

FTR I got the original vax and was boosted, but I haven’t opted for continual covid vaccines. I’m also a lifelong liberal who would never vote for a R. But my pediatrician stopped recommending the covid vaccine a while ago based on “the science,” so I feel like research has evolved.

Instead of a knee-jerk reaction, perhaps there is a middle ground?

This is such a sensible response. As a middle aged late woman home right now with my first ever bout of Covid, even I support a common sense, open-minded understanding of this topic. For healthy people, the risks of the vaccines simply do not outweigh the risks of Covid. I don't feel great right now, but it's just a bad cold. I had the first round of shots and no boosters. Too many in the medical community are coming out with new recommendations about the safety and efficacy. I wish people would just be more open-minded instead of jumping right to insults of people who happen to have a different perspective.

Well I have seen previously healthy people left with major health issues/long covid. So it is definately not "just a bad cold" for everyone. If you don't want the vax, then don't get it. But it should remain avaialable to anyone who wants it. I'm open minded, but not to people who are not medical staff/reseraches (a la RFK jr and Trump). I prefer to get my medical advice from highly qualified doctors/medical researchers

Do you not understand that boosters are not the reason the pandemic ended? This is a serious problem. The complete lack of understanding or any ability to think.

Restrictions on who can get vaccinated this Fall. Seniors and people with serious health conditions.

This is incorrect. The American pediatric assoc and American assoc of gyn and obstetrics both just strongly recommended the covid booster for pregnant women and children because of the wave and danger they are seeing to kids in ER. Just to clarify, those associations are made up of doctors.

The study you are referring to shows that Covid virus (not vaccine) ages vessels, most notably in women.

I think maybe your pediatrician needs a refresher course.

I’m not sure they can effectively determine whether it’s the virus or vax that is problematic.

I know a lot of young women who have developed bizarre health issues since covid. Think: vascular compressions requiring transplants/artery rerouting. These were otherwise healthy girls. There are a limited number of specialists who can do such a surgery, and those specialists can’t pinpoint if it’s the vac or virus that prompted the issue.

My pediatrician group is plugged into the CDC and the latest research. Regardless, commonsense dictates there’s no need to continue to vaccinate healthy kids when covid is presenting like a cold for most people.

I’d love to know how you know “a lot of young women” who have developed bizarre health issues since COViD. I have a teen at an all girls school who also plays a sport with public school girls (since before COVID). We know zero girls that have this problem. How do you know sooooo many young women? Oh, your internet algorithm? Yeah, that doesn’t count. Anecdotes like mine and yours don’t count. Science does.

+1. If the PP actually did have evidence of this Covid issue cluster, they can easily document that to a qualified health professional who could inform local health authorities. But the PP just doesn’t like vaccines and is making up stuff.

It’s currently being tracked and studied.

It’s complicated because the patients have developed so many ailments that it’s become a chicken or egg situation.

Well yes. You can’t attribute all your ailments to a covid vaccine, just because you have a narrative in your head that you don’t like vaccines. Thats why no research supports the PP’s assertion
