Litigation Content

Why this Matters:

Plaintiff alleges that defendants violated the Administrative Procedure Act when they removed from publicly available websites a broad range of health-related data. The information was removed from websites in response to Presidential Executive Orders. The removed information was critical to public health research and combatting morbidity and mortality.

Potential Impact:

Making critical health information inaccessible to the public harms public health research and jeopardizes disease diagnosis and treatment.
