US Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F Kennedy JrTasos Katopodis/Getty One of the top vaccine experts at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Lakshmi Panagiotakopoulos, resigned on 4 June – a week after Robert F Kennedy Jr announced that covid-19 vaccines would no longer be recommended for most children and pregnancies. The announcement set off several days of confusion around who will have access to covid-19 vaccines in the US going forward. In practice, there hasn’t been a drastic change to access, though there will probably be new obstacles for parents hoping to vaccinate their children. Still, Kennedy’s announcement signals a troubling circumvention of public health norms. “My career in public health and vaccinology started with a deep-seated desire to help the most vulnerable members of our population, and that is not something I am able to continue doing in this role,” said Panagiotakopoulos in an email to colleagues obtained by Reuters. Panagiotakopoulos supported the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), which has advised the CDC on vaccine recommendations since 1964. But last week, Kennedy – the country’s highest-ranking public health official – upended this decades-long precedent. “I couldn’t be more pleased to announce that, as of today, the covid vaccine for healthy children and healthy pregnant woman has been removed from the CDC recommended immunisation schedule,” he said in a video posted to the social media platform X on 27 May. Despite his directive, the CDC has, so far, only made minor changes to its guidance on covid-19 vaccines. Instead of recommending them for children outright, it now recommends vaccination “based on shared clinical decision-making”. In other words, parents should talk with a doctor before deciding. It isn’t clear how this will affect access to these vaccines in every scenario, but it could make it more difficult for children to get a shot at pharmacies.

While its website still recommends a covid-19 shot during pregnancy, a note at the top says, “this page will be updated to align with the updated immunization schedule.” Kennedy’s announcement contradicts the stances of major public health organisations, too. Both the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (APP) have come out opposing it. “The CDC and HHS encourage individuals to talk with their healthcare provider about any personal medical decision,” an HHS spokesperson told New Scientist. “Under the leadership of Secretary Kennedy, HHS is restoring the doctor-patient relationship.” However, Linda Eckert at the University of Washington in Seattle says the conflicting messages are confusing for people. “It opens up disinformation opportunities. It undermines confidence in vaccination in general,” she says. “I can’t imagine it won’t decrease immunisation rates overall.” Research has repeatedly shown covid-19 vaccination in adolescence and pregnancy is safe and effective. In fact, Martin Makary, the head of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), listed pregnancy as a risk factor for severe covid-19 a week before Kennedy’s announcement, further convoluting the government’s public health messaging. Kennedy’s announcement is in line with some other countries’ covid policies. For example, Australia and the UK don’t recommend covid-19 vaccines for children unless they are at risk of severe illness. They also don’t recommend covid-19 vaccination during pregnancy if someone is already vaccinated. Asma Khalil, a member of the UK Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation, says the UK’s decision was based on the reduced risk of the omicron variant, the cost-effectiveness of vaccination and high population immunity. However, these factors can vary across countries. The UK population also tends to have better access to healthcare than the US, says Eckert. “These decisions need to carefully consider the risks and benefits relative to the national population,” says Khalil. The HHS didn’t answer New Scientist’s questions about whether a similar analysis guided Kennedy’s decision-making. What is maybe most troubling, however, is the precedent Kennedy’s announcement sets. The ACIP – an independent group of public health experts – was expected to vote on proposed changes to covid-19 vaccine recommendations later this month. But Kennedy’s decision has bypassed this process. “This style of decision-making – by individuals versus going through experts who are carefully vetted for conflicts of interest, who carefully look at the data – this has never happened in our country,” says Eckert. “We’re in uncharted territory.” She worries the move could pave the way for Kennedy to chip away at other vaccine recommendations. “I know there are a lot of vaccines he has been actively against in his career,” she says. Kennedy has previously blamed vaccines for autism and falsely claimed that the polio vaccine caused more deaths than it averted. “What it speaks to is the fact that [Kennedy] does not see value in these vaccines and is going to do everything he can to try and devalue them in the minds of the public and make them harder to receive,” says Amesh Adalja at Johns Hopkins University.

Forward-looking: PCIe 5.0 SSDs are fast, but they're kind of old news now – they're everywhere and have kind of lost some of their "wow" factor. But this year, Micron shook things up with a sneak peek at what's next with a prototype PCIe 6.0 SSD. What makes it special is its potential to hit a jaw-dropping 30.25 GB/s in sequential read and write speeds – double the throughput of today's fastest consumer SSDs. It all sounds great, as long as you're not expecting to pop one into your gaming rig anytime soon. Dubbed the Micron 9650 Pro, the SSD is still very much in the test-bench phase. It was spotted by Tom's Hardware at Computex 2025, housed in a chunky metal enclosure and far from the familiar M.2 form factor. In fact, it appeared to be connected to a PCIe 6.0 expansion card, held down with what looked like sticky tape. Unfortunately, Micron isn't targeting your desktop just yet. The 9650 Pro is more of a data center and AI platform play right now. It was showcased at Astera Labs' booth, where it was helping demonstrate next-gen PCIe 6.0 switches and bandwidth-matching software. These switches allow devices like GPUs and SSDs to communicate directly with each other, skipping the CPU entirely - something that's becoming increasingly crucial in high-performance AI workflows. Also read: The Inner Workings of PCI Express // Related Stories The catch here is that no CPUs officially support PCIe 6.0 yet, and PCI-SIG certification for Gen 6 devices isn't expected until late 2025. That puts the 9650 Pro firmly in the "cool tech demo" category, at least for now. Until the ecosystem that includes motherboards, CPUs, and certification bodies catches up, don't expect it to land in your build anytime soon. What was demoed at Computex is currently in the EVT3 (Engineering Validation Test 3) stage, meaning it has already gone through two rounds of hardware tuning and is now being used to fine-tune performance and compatibility. From here, it still needs to pass through Design Validation Testing (DVT) and Production Validation Testing (PVT) before anything close to a commercial release becomes a reality. This latest showcase follows an earlier Micron and Astera Labs demo at DesignCon, where they showed real-world PCIe 6.0 performance hitting 27 GB/s. Image credit: Tom's Hardware

Using aluminum alloys and tailored fin geometries, the Conflux-designed WCAC units reduce weight from 16 kg to just 1.4 kg per cooler. By relocating the system into the engine bay and shortening the inlet tract, the new thermal architecture enhances throttle response and packaging efficiency. The additively manufactured design, inspired by Formula 1 cooling technology, was adapted for a road-legal vehicle. In another recent example, Alloy Enterprises developed a high-efficiency cold plate for NVIDIA’s H100 PCIe card, addressing power density challenges in advanced computing. The component was fabricated from 6061 aluminum using the company’s proprietary Stack Forging process. It features 180-micron microcapillaries, gyroid infill, and monolithic inlet/outlet channels—all optimized using nTop’s generative design software. With a final weight under 550 grams, the liquid cold plate delivers targeted cooling through simulation-derived internal structures. The 3D printed aluminum cold plate. Photo via nTop.
