NEW YORK (AP) — The nation’s top public health agency posted new recommendations that say healthy children and pregnant women may get COVID-19 vaccinations, removing stronger language that those groups should get the shots.
The Trump administration issued its long-awaited Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Commission report Thursday, hammering various industries while deviating from mainstream science on key issues including farming practices, vaccinations and psychiatric medications.
As of May 15, a total of 1,024 cases were reported across 31 states amid the deadliest outbreak in years. Per the CDC, 96 percent of individuals with confirmed cases are either unvaccinated or have an unknown vaccination status.
Thirteen percent of individuals have been hospitalized, and there have been three confirmed deaths due to the disease this year, according to the data.
