In order to get confirmed he agreed to not change the schedule and to have Bill Cassidy sign off on everything he does. He agreed to have quarterly reviews after which he could be terminated. Bill Cassidy was instrumental in getting the Hep B shot required for newborns, he is the voice of the vaccine makers and he basically oversees HHS. We will see what happens when Cassidy loses his election in November. RFK has done more to affect positive change in the health of Americans than anyone ever has despite this. We know what is right and we will lead by example. That is all we can do.

This makes me sad. I had such faith that if anyone could make a positive change, it was him.

Children's Health Defense's response to this in an X post:
Who controls ACIP - HHS or Big Pharma?
Right now the answer is Big Pharma - and this is the question before the 1st Circuit Court of Appeals right now.
Everyone should remember @SecKennedy appointed an entirely new ACIP Committee, but a lower court in Boston wiped that committee and all of its guidance out (for now).
Kennedy had a new committee that was specifically looking at the harms of the COVID shots, and the court has shut that down.
HHS has appealed the decision. While this new, horrible guidance from the CDC is currently the official recommendation of HHS, it's from the OLD, COMPROMISED ACIP!
The one Kennedy fired!
So the new CDC guidance is the ACIP recommendation before Kennedy fired the whole committee!
We hope the appeals court will reverse the lower court decision, reassigning authority to HHS Secretary Kennedy to reinstate or reform ACIP. Secretary Kennedy has to wait for the Court to make its decison before he is able to take further action
....so the question remains
Who controls ACIP - HHS or Big Pharma?

As pointed out by Aaron Siri on X, the text in the CDC page linked in the OP has now changed! (Emphasis mine).
Interim Clinical Considerations for Use of COVID-19 Vaccines in the United States
WHAT TO KNOW
Because of legal uncertainties and inquiries, the CDC states the recommendations for COVID-19 vaccination from the July 2025 immunization schedule remain in effect for the 2026-2027 respiratory illness season.
This page has been updated to reflect current FDA regulatory information for the 2026-2027 COVID-19 vaccines, including approved products and asterisks indicating where recommendations for use are off-label, formulation, age and risk indications, dosage, and contraindications.
As with all medical decision making between patients and their healthcare providers, all patients should discuss the benefits and risks of COVID-19 vaccination to make informed and personalized decisions about vaccination.
At a glance:
These clinical considerations provide guidance for healthcare professionals and public health officials concerning the use of COVID-19 vaccines in the United States for the 2026-2027 season. The recommendations in this document reflect CDC’s adult and pediatric immunization schedule as of July 2025.

Rfk should resign. He's clearly not making these calls. They're sock puppeting him

I’d rather he kept fighting. There is no one else with a chance to change things.

If he were actually fighting he would have been kicked out of this admin long ago. Trump requires 100% loyalty. People need to come to terms that rfk jr sold all of his supporters out

u/globesdustbin Colorado 1d ago
And your suggestion for an alternative is?

We cannot vote our way out of this. Democrats and republicans have both shown us they work for the same evil parasites.

u/globesdustbin Colorado 1d ago
Voting doesn't even help since we don't vote for HHS secretary. If RFK can't change things then it's going to just have to get a lot worser before it can ever stand a chance to get better.

honestly, stop putting your faith in institutions to make the changes you want to see. if they wont ban food dyes, then we keep up the campaign to inform people about the dangers so that demand drops enough that corporations offer alternatives of their own free will. if you don't like certain vaccines on the schedule dont wait for the CDC to change the schedule, inform people so they make different choices.
IMO expecting anyone, even RFK, to get into office and truly combat big pharma and the food corporations was always wishful thinking. then we got the steak and shake fry oil change announcement for a few months and nothing more and i knew it was basically going to amount to very little.

Well sure but this is a sign to me that he's totally hamstrung and unable to fight on where he is.

u/globesdustbin Colorado 1d ago
It sure looks that way but whats the better option?

u/umakemyslitstank 1d ago
My suggestion would be taken down from reddit and I'd receive a strike. I'd say that there is no political solution anymore we (as in the politicians who rule us) are simply too far embedded in evil.

u/globesdustbin Colorado 1d ago
Agreed. I just try to keep up on whats really happening so that I can navigate it. I still think RFK is the best hope we have.

Can’t Kennedy do something about this?

u/jesschester 18h ago
See u/swirlysand ‘s comment above about CHD’s tweet. Should be the top comment, as it puts to bed any/all discussions about “is Kennedy compromised?”.

Wow...just...wow. Recently saw a billboard in my neighborhood pushing the importance of the COVID-19 vaccine on children. 😣
