The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is still recommending COVID-19 vaccines for healthy children, according to its latest published immunization schedule, contradicting Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s announcement on Tuesday that the agency will stop recommendations.

The schedule, published late on Thursday, comes after Kennedy, a long-time vaccine skeptic, and heads of the FDA and the National Institutes of Health said the CDC would stop recommending routine COVID-19 vaccines for healthy children and pregnant women.

Like the choice of saying "Health and Human Services Secretary". Instead of DHS Secretary, it's HHSS. This is our timeline. HH. SS.
