The deletions were part of the agency’s compliance with an executive order to remove content that promoted “gender ideology.” Pages removed included health resources — such as guidelines on contraception, race and health disparities — and vaccine information statements. Additionally, a database containing HIV data was temporarily taken offline.
By Feb. 3, many of the removed pages had reappeared, partly in response to media coverage and concern from healthcare providers. However, some of the restored files are still difficult to access, with certain links broken or incomplete, according to the Times.
