"A Superior Court judge in Stamford on Monday dismissed a lawsuit challenging a Connecticut law that eliminated religious exemptions from school vaccine requirements." Good. Medical exemptions only protect more people. https://ctmirror.org/2026/09/15/court-upholds-ct-law-no-religious-exemptions-school-vaccines/ #PublicHealth #vaccines #immunizations #ChildrensHealth #prevention #PrimaryCare #connecticut

"Sen. Andy Kim on Tuesday unveiled a proposal for all American children to receive Medicare, a program he’s dubbed MediKids, saying Democrats must bring new ideas to move the conversation on healthcare forward. Kim’s MediKids Act would automatically enroll every child into the program at birth, provide continued eligibility until the age of 26 and cover 100% of the federal medical assistance percentage for this cohort." https://thehill.com/homenews/5980026-sen-andy-kim-medikids-proposal/ #healthcare #medicare #ChildrensHealth #USpol

"Under federal rules, if a complaint about an infant formula — such as a report of an adverse event — shows a possible health hazard, the company must investigate. But it doesn’t always have to inform the government agency that oversees the safety of infant formula.” https://kffhealthnews.org/health-industry/infant-formula-adverse-events-nec-baby-deaths-fda-reporting/ #PublicHealth #formula #ChildrensHealth #FDA #courts #investigation

A Mom Said Infant Formula Killed Her Baby. The Manufacturer Closed the File. - KFF Health News

When makers of infant formula hear that babies got sick or died while using their products, what happens next is left largely to the manufacturers. They decide whether to inform the FDA about possible harm, which could trigger steps to protect the public.

Kennedy Jr. is continuing his battle to remake federal vaccine policy, this time by rewriting the charter of a federal committee that wields enormous influence over childhood immunizations to shift its focus beyond vaccines." https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/childhood-vaccines/new-acip-charter-could-allow-rfk-jr-further-restrict-vaccine-access-critics-say #PublicHealth #HHS #ACIP #vaccines #immunizations #ChildrensHealth #physicians

"In 2023, Florida lawmakers unanimously approved expanding KidCare to close the gaps for families like Lafortune’s, raising the eligibility threshold so that coverage would extend to more than 40,000 children. But the expanded coverage has not taken effect...because the administration of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican, has not implemented the changes." https://kffhealthnews.org/insurance/chip-expansion-florida-delay-children-health-coverage-uninsured-rates/ #healthcare #ACA #obamacare #medicaid #ChildrensHealth #CMS #florida

ICYMI: "Parents must realize that refusing vaccinations doesn’t just put your own child at risk. It puts other children at risk. I don’t know where Renae picked up measles. It’s one of the most contagious viruses that exists, and it could have been from anywhere. That’s why herd immunity is so important." https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/21/opinion/measles-child-britain-vaccination.html#PublicHealth #measles #vaccinations #immunizations #ChildrensHealth
