RFK Jr. Announces ‘Clean Sweep’ Of CDC Vaccine Advisors
Daily Caller6 days
This committee cleanup was long overdue. ACIP had become a pharmaceutical industry rubber stamp that never met a vaccine it wouldn't recommend, even ones later withdrawn for safety issues. These Biden appointees were compromised by financial conflicts and operated behind closed doors, violating transparency principles Americans deserve.
Firing the entire panel of respected medical experts is reckless and unprecedented, undermining decades of rigorous scientific review and evaluation. ACIP members already disclose conflicts and recuse themselves when necessary, following the most stringent ethics policies available. This ideological purge will destabilize vaccination programs and fuel dangerous misinformation.
