Nationally, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has made several important updates. The CDC now officially recommends the RSV vaccine for high-risk adults starting at age 50, in addition to all adults 75 and older and those aged 60 and above with qualifying health conditions. This expansion is intended to better protect those at risk for severe respiratory syncytial virus, which remains a serious threat to older adults and those with certain medical problems. While this update is detailed on the CDC’s website, it is not yet part of the main immunization schedule. The vaccine is also recommended during pregnancy to help shield newborns, as reported by HealthDay News and the Associated Press.
On infectious disease surveillance, the CDC continues to report low overall respiratory illness levels, but warns of rising measles cases now spread across 38 states in 2025. Vaccination and timely diagnosis remain crucial, especially in communities with lower immunization rates.
There has also been a major policy shift regarding COVID-19 vaccination for children and pregnant individuals. Updated CDC guidance now leaves vaccination decisions to shared clinical decision-making between families and healthcare providers, rather than blanket recommendations. Health officials continue to emphasize that COVID-19 poses significant risks, particularly for adults over 65 and infants under age one. While the new policy allows for more personalized choices, it has drawn criticism from medical societies who argue that removing broad recommendations may undermine public confidence and threaten public health infrastructure, as outlined by Spectrum News and AJMC.
Concerning avian influenza H5N1, the CDC has ended its emergency response due to a significant decline in cases from February to July. However, the public health risk still warrants caution for those with direct exposure to sick or dead birds, raw milk, or contaminated farm environments. Health care providers should remain vigilant for symptoms of acute respiratory illness in such individuals and coordinate testing and treatment promptly. The CDC underscores that while risk to the general public remains low, continued monitoring and adherence to safety guidelines are advised, according to Denver7 and the CDC’s updated clinical guidance.
The Food and Drug Administration has issued several product safety updates, including approvals for certain cancer therapies and new labeling for ADHD medications in young children. The FDA’s Pediatric Advisory Committee is meeting today, July 9, to discuss pediatric drug and device safety reviews, reflecting ongoing efforts to protect children’s health.
