"Children's Health Defense, the organization founded by Kennedy, this week filed a citizen's petition asking FDA commissioner Marty Makary to deem Moderna's and Pfizer's COVID vaccines "misbranded" and revoke their licenses "due to a lack of compliance with FDA regulations." The argument is based on the fine print surrounding the vaccines' conversion from emergency use early in the pandemic to full approval later on."
"State of play: The petition follows the FDA's own public skepticism of the shots. Top FDA vaccine regulator Vinay Prasad claimed in a leaked internal memo - without documented evidence - that the agency has determined COVID vaccines have killed "at least" 10 children, and the agency said this week it's reviewing adult deaths, too. The CDC in October dropped a broad recommendation that older Americans get a COVID-19 vaccine."
Children's Health Defense filed a citizen petition asking the FDA to deem Moderna's and Pfizer's COVID mRNA vaccines misbranded and to revoke their licenses for alleged noncompliance with FDA regulations. The legal challenge focuses on regulatory details tied to the vaccines' transition from emergency use to full approval. The petition states it does not argue safety or efficacy, although the organization has previously claimed the vaccines are unsafe. Kennedy allies and other skeptics have gained visibility in national vaccine discussions, and internal FDA concerns and CDC guidance changes have intensified scrutiny, though outright market removal remains unlikely.
