Judge orders Trump admin to restore CDC and FDA webpages by midnight | Removed pages include guidance and data on HIV, contraceptives, and teen health.


Removed pages include guidance and data on HIV, contraceptives, and teen health.

Information was taken down from websites for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration following a January 29 memo from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). In a lawsuit filed February 4, the nonprofit organization Doctors for America, represented by consumer advocacy group Public Citizen, claimed that the documents and data removed were critical for research and the efficient care of patients. In his opinion, Bates cited the declarations from Stephanie Liou, a physician who works with low-income immigrant families and an underserved high school in Chicago, and Reshma Ramachandran, a primary care provider who relies on CDC guidance on contraceptives and sexually transmitted diseases in her practice.
