Judge orders HHS, CDC and FDA to restore deleted webpages with health information

Summary

A federal judge ordered HHS, CDC, and FDA to restore deleted health webpages removed under Trump’s executive order on gender ideology.

The ruling favors Doctors for America, which argued that erasing medical data violated federal law and harmed patient care.

The deletions impacted STI treatment guidance, youth health data, and immunization resources.

Judge John Bates found the agencies acted unlawfully, endangering the public health. His ruling requires restoration by Tuesday night, marking another legal setback for Trump’s executive actions.
