Dr. James Hildreth, an epidemiologist and head of Meharry Medical College, said he is 'baffled' over RFK Jr.'s changes to CDC vaccine advisory panel.

Meissner was previously listed in April as a consultant to the RSV vaccines work group for the CDC committee, before Kennedy fired its advisers.

One of the ACIP members fired by Robert Kennedy Jr. was acclaimed health behavior researcher Noel Brewer, who works at UNC.

Just two days after retiring the entirety of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s vaccine advisory panel, US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has appointed several prominent critics of the government’s Covid-19 response to that committee.

For this reason, the CDC recommends adults 50 or older schedule the following vaccines, which many people can get for free. Just talk to your doctor before getting any vaccine, as there are some exceptions to CDC recommendations.

World-renowned infectious-disease epidemiologist Martin Kulldorff — who was fired from Harvard Medical School last year after refusing the COVID vaccine — just got a new gig. Kulldorff has been named a member of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices.
