RFK Jr. vaccine panel to discuss long COVID, vaccine injuries in next meeting

The U.S. CDC's vaccine advisory committee will discuss and may vote on recommendations for issues including COVID-19 vaccine injuries and long COVID at its scheduled meeting on March 18 and 19, according to a notice in the Federal Register. The notice was posted on Feb. 25.
