CDC Delays Report on Covid Vaccine Effectiveness

  • The CDC delayed a report that found Covid vaccines reduced urgent care visits by 50% and hospitalizations by 55%, citing concerns over its methodology.
  • Acting CDC Director Jay Bhattacharya is reviewing the report, which has drawn criticism for its timing and potential political motivations.
  • Experts warn that the delay reflects ongoing efforts by the Trump administration to undermine vaccine research and public health messaging.
