US Supreme Court Rejects Appeals from Children's Health Defense

The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected two appeals from Children's Health Defense, an anti-vaccine group founded by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., which challenged the FDA's emergency authorization of COVID-19 vaccines and Rutgers University's vaccine mandate for students. Lower courts had previously ruled that CHD lacked standing in these cases. Kennedy criticized Pfizer, alleging they concealed information about vaccine safety, including risks of myocarditis and miscarriages. Despite these legal setbacks, Kennedy continues his presidential campaign as an independent. Additionally, CHD has a pending lawsuit against news organizations for allegedly violating antitrust laws by addressing COVID-19 misinformation.
