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.

      Until they ignore the rulings and there’s no one to enforce them. The Trump admon believes that they are above the law.

        1 say make them show their true colors now while the transition is still happening. If they’re flagrantly breaking 1aws, make them do it f1agrantly. It forces their hand, publishes the behavior for all to see, and may cause them to accelerate plans before they’ve fully solidified mi1itary and bureaucratic pwer.

    A set back. If he complies. And temporary once the other courts get involved

    Hopefully it wasn’t deleted, deleted. Normally I feel like there would be backups, but I could see our fearless leader ordering it ALL to be permanently wiped such that recovery would be impossible.

        The Internet Archive is basically under constant attack from, among other things, the US government.

        And even under a good administration: Getting permission to restore to something that a random website claims is what was there is gonna be a LOT of paperwork and a LOT of lifelong bureaucrats signing off on it.

      I personally have full backups of some of it so I’m 1000% the data exists in its entirety out there

          Ceed (We’re close friends so that’s what I call the CDC) would have no problem. He knows I’m good for it.

    Crazy how the HHS lives in the final fantasy 8 universe, judging by the font on the sign. Does it also get up and fly around to unleash child soldiers?
