(ATLANTA) — The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s vaccine advisory committee voted 8-3 on Friday to remove the universal recommendation for the hepatitis B vaccine at birth.
The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) voted to make vaccine recommendations based on the mother’s testing status.
The recommendations state that if a mother tests negative for hepatitis B, parents should decide, with the guidance of their health care provider, whether the shot is right for their newborn — referred to as “individual-based decision-making,” according to a document with the ACIP voting language.
The vote includes that newborns who do not receive the hepatitis B birth dose get an initial dose no earlier than 2 months old.
The voting language document emphasized there is no change to the recommendation that infants born to women who test positive or have unknown status to be vaccinated.
The language document also included a footnote that parents and health care providers should consider whether the newborn faces risks, such as a hepatitis B-positive household member or frequent contact with people who have emigrated from areas where hepatitis B is common.
In a second vote, the ACIP voted 6-4, with one abstention, that parents of older children should talk to their doctor about hepatitis B antibody testing before considering subsequent hepatitis B vaccination.
The testing would determine whether an antibody threshold was achieved and should be covered by insurance.
The CDC acting director, Health and Human Services Deputy Secretary Jim O’Neill, is expected to sign off on the change.

Thomas Rhett Live From Fenway (The Valory Music Company)
Thomas Rhett sold out a concert at Boston’s Fenway Park earlier this year, which had long been a dream of his. If you weren’t able to make it, you can hear some of it now on his new release, Thomas Rhett Live From Fenway Park.
The EP features six live songs, as well as audio of TR reading a letter to the Boston audience about how much the city means to him. “Pretty sure I’ve played most every venue that this town has to offer,” he recalled, before running down a list. He also noted that his favorite show in Boston was one he played two years ago at TD Garden.
“I’ve drank most of your bars out of beer. I’ve eaten my weight in lobster rolls. … Thrown my guts up on a whale-watching tour. And attended my fair share of Red Sox games,” TR continued. “Needless to say, this place has always been and always will be one of my favorite places to play on the planet. I have a lot of history in this city and I love y’all so much.”
The EP includes live performances of “Make Me Wanna,” “Beautiful As You,” “T-Shirt,” “Somethin’ ‘Bout a Woman” with special guest Teddy Swims, “Die a Happy Man” and “She Had Me at Heads Carolina,” the Cole Swindell hit that he co-wrote. There are also videos of all those performances on YouTube.

Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau are globe-trotting together and meeting important figures along the way.
Perry and Trudeau posed with former Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and his wife in a photo posted to social media on Thursday by the former Japanese leader.
The prime minister referred to Perry as Trudeau’s “partner” in a social media post about the meeting.
“Former Canadian Prime Minister @JustinTrudeau visited Japan with his partner and joined my wife and me for lunch,” wrote Kishida, in a caption translated from Japanese to English.
“During his time as prime minister, we met multiple times as fellow leaders, and when I visited Canada, we worked together to strengthen bilateral relations, including formulating the ‘Japan-Canada Action Plan,’ sweating it out side by side,” he continued.
Trudeau responded to the photo on social media, adding, “Katy and I were so glad to have the chance to sit down with you and Yuko. Thank you, Fumio, for your friendship and your continued commitment to both the international rules-based order and to a better future for everyone.”
Kishida served as the 100th and 101st prime minister of Japan, serving from October 2021 until October 2024. Trudeau resigned as Canada’s prime minister earlier this year after serving a decade in the role.
Trudeau and Perry have not publicly commented on their relationship.
Perry recently split from Orlando Bloom, with whom she had been in a relationship since 2016 and to whom she became engaged on Valentine’s Day in 2019.
In June, People reported that Perry and Bloom have “gone their separate ways” after a nearly decade-long relationship.
The pair welcomed their first child together, Daisy Dove Bloom, in August 2020.
Trudeau announced his separation from his then-wife Sophie Trudeau in August 2023. They had been married since 2005 and share three children together — Xavier, Ella-Grace and Hadrien Trudeau.

Aerosmith and Yungblud have released a new version of the One More Time track “Wild Woman” featuring country star Lainey Wilson.
Steven Tyler and Yungblud decided to ask Lainey to add her vocals to the track after she joined Tyler to perform the Aerosmith classic “Dream On” at his sixth annual Jam for Janie benefit in February. Joe Perry later went in and added new guitar parts to the track.
“I’m really hyped to have Lainey Wilson jump on this record with us. I have been a fan of her for a while. Her story is inspirational” says Yungblud. “With this record, we really needed a female vocalist who could carry it with the level of authenticity that Lainey embodies. We needed a wild woman and we for sure got one!”
One More Time, released in November, is the first collaborative EP between Aerosmith and Yungblud. The record debuted at #9 on the Billboard 200 and at #1 on the U.K. Official Chart.

(NEW YORK) — Luigi Mangione returns to court Friday for a fourth day of an evidence suppression hearing in the state case charging him with murdering United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson on a New York City sidewalk last year.
Testimony is expected to include two Altoona, Pennsylvania, patrolmen who were among more than a dozen officers at the McDonald’s where Mangione was arrested following the shooting.
One of them, Christy Wasser, is seen on body camera footage searching Mangione’s backpack and, later, is heard saying, “there’s a weapon.”
The defense is trying to exclude the contents of the backpack from Mangione’s trial, arguing police had no warrant and no reason to even touch it.
“He never acted belligerent, did he?” defense attorney Jacob Kaplan asked Patrolman Tyler Frye during Thursday’s proceedings. “No,” Frye answered.
“He never attempted to open is backpack at the McDonald’s, did he?” Kaplan asked. “No,” the patrolman responded.
The bag contained what prosecutors have described as the means and the motive for the alleged crime. Prosecutor says police retrieved a 3D-printed pistol used to kill Thompson and a notebook in which Mangione allegedly wrote, “The target is insurance. It checks every box.”
The hearing is expected to continue well into next week, though the judge on Thursday told both sides they were being “duplicative” and said that’s “not helping your case.”

(TAMPA, Fla) — Years after the bodies of a woman and her 2-year-old daughter were found on Long Island — once associated with the Gilgo Beach serial murders — the woman’s suspected killer appeared before a Florida judge on Thursday facing murder charges.
Andrew Dykes, 66, was arrested and charged with two counts of murder Wednesday near Tampa on a warrant out of Nassau County, New York, in connection with the 1997 death of Tanya Jackson, law enforcement sources told ABC News.
Dykes did not enter a plea but is due back in a Florida court next week as Nassau County seeks his extradition to New York.
The Nassau County district attorney’s office declined to comment.
Jackson was 26 when she was found dismembered in Lakeview in June 1997. The body of her 2-year-old year old daughter, Tatiana, was found 14 years later near Gilgo Beach.
For years, Jackson, a U.S. Army veteran, was known only as “Peaches” because of a distinctive tattoo, and her daughter as “Baby Doe.”
In April, authorities in New York announced they had finally identified Jackson and her daughter and offered a $25,000 reward for information in the cold case.
The girl’s remains were found in 2011 close to where the remains of other women were found along the southern shore of Long Island leading to speculation the deaths were the work of the Gilgo Beach serial killer.
Long Island architect and father Rex Heuermann was arrested in 2023 in connection with several of the Gilgo Beach slayings and later charged with killing seven women.
Heuermann, who has pleaded not guilty, was never charged with the killings of Jackson or her daughter.
Netflix has announced that it has entered a “definitive agreement” to acquire Warner Bros. — including its film and television studios, HBO Max and HBO — in a deal valued at approximately $83 billion, according to the company.
“This acquisition brings together two pioneering entertainment businesses, combining Netflix’s innovation, global reach and best-in-class streaming service with Warner Bros.’ century-long legacy of world-class storytelling,” Netflix said in the statement released Friday morning.
“Beloved franchises, shows and movies such as The Big Bang Theory, The Sopranos, Game of Thrones, The Wizard of Oz and the DC Universe will join Netflix’s extensive portfolio including Wednesday, Money Heist, Bridgerton, Adolescence and Extraction, creating an extraordinary entertainment offering for audiences worldwide,” the company continued.
The transaction is expected to close after the previously announced separation of WBD’s Global Networks division, Discovery Global, into a new publicly-traded company, which is now expected to be completed in Q3 2026, Netflix said.
“Our mission has always been to entertain the world,” said Ted Sarandos, co-CEO of Netflix. “By combining Warner Bros.’ incredible library of shows and movies—from timeless classics like Casablanca and Citizen Kane to modern favorites like Harry Potter and Friends—with our culture-defining titles like Stranger Things, KPop Demon Hunters and Squid Game, we’ll be able to do that even better. Together, we can give audiences more of what they love and help define the next century of storytelling.”
The cash and stock transaction has a total enterprise value of approximately $82.7 billion and an equity value of $72 billion, Netflix said.
