“Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Monday removed all 17 members of the expert panel that makes vaccine policy recommendations to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, saying they’d be replaced with ‘new members currently under consideration.’ … ACIP is composed of appointees including vaccine and infectious disease experts from academic medical centers and other public health professionals. They evaluate vaccine data at public meetings and were due to meet later this month to discuss COVID-19 vaccines, among other topics. Kennedy during his confirmation process had promised senators he would keep the panel, without committing to maintaining its current makeup.” (06/09/25)
