Healthcare Under Threat—Stand Up & Fight Back!
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services recently announced that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will no longer recommend COVID-19 vaccines for healthy children and pregnant women. This decision has sparked concern among health experts, who warn that it could lead to reduced vaccine access and increased health risks.
Studies have shown that vaccination during pregnancy helps protect both the mother and the infant, reducing the risk of hospitalization. Many medical experts worry that removing the CDC recommendation could make it harder for expectant mothers to access vaccines, as insurance companies may stop covering them.
Mr. Kennedy’s decision bypassed the usual scientific review process, which typically involves independent experts evaluating vaccine recommendations. Some health professionals argue that this move undermines public trust in vaccines and could lead to lower vaccination rates, increasing the risk of outbreaks.
Rep. Ocasio-Cortez, your leadership in advocating for affordable, accessible healthcare has been inspiring. We urge you to continue fighting for policies that protect our communities. It's imperative that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. be immediately removed from his position as Secretary of Health and Human Services. His actions disregard and endanger the well-being of all citizens and undermine public health protections.
Please help amplify this petition and take action to ensure every American gets the healthcare they deserve.
