RFK Jr. just gutted the CDC’s trusted vaccine advisory panel and replaced its members with known vaccine skeptics and misinformation peddlers.

This isn’t oversight, it’s sabotage.

Panels like ACIP are supposed to be made up of pediatricians, immunologists, and vaccine experts—people who rely on science, facts, and decades of public health data. Instead, RFK Jr. is putting in people who have openly attacked vaccines, dismissed COVID protections, and pushed dangerous conspiracy theories.

One new appointee even blamed measles deaths on doctors, with no evidence.

Another has no medical degree and has called for an end to COVID vaccines altogether.

These are not the people we trust to guide vaccine safety in America.

Vaccines have saved millions of lives. They’re why we don’t live in fear of polio or smallpox. Undermining that legacy for political gain puts everyone, especially kids and the vulnerable, at risk.

We demand that these appointments be reversed immediately. Science, not ideology, must guide public health.
