RFK Jr. Removes Entire CDC Vaccine Advisory Committee

WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has made the decision to replace every single member of a CDC vaccine advisory committee. 

Kennedy made the announcement Monday, saying he’d replace the 17 members of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices with his own picks.

While the move was criticized by the mainstream media, it’s important to note that the Biden administration installed the entire committee in the first place.

The committee had also still declined to advise against COVID-19 vaccines for healthy children and pregnant women, a decision RFK made himself recently, which caused one of the co-leaders of the committee to resign.

“Without removing the current members, the current Trump administration would not have been able to appoint a majority of new members until 2028,” Kennedy wrote. “A clean sweep is needed to re-establish public confidence in vaccine science. ”

Public trust in all vaccines, along with government oversight agencies, has waned since the COVID-19 pandemic.

There have previously been troubling connections between the CDC and pharmaceutical companies.

In a Wall Street Journal column, Kennedy wrote the committee members had too many conflicts of interest.
