Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s recent changes as Health and Human Services Secretary have sparked alarm regarding vaccine policies, especially limiting access for older adults and healthy children. His decision to dismiss all 17 members of the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) has destabilized critical public health guidance. The resulting FDA vaccine framework further restricts updated vaccines, leaving vulnerable populations exposed. Critics highlight that these shifts jeopardize national COVID-19 responses and potentially erode trust in healthcare institutions at a crucial time for public health.
Under Secretary Kennedy's leadership, recent policy changes have led to restricted access to COVID-19 vaccines, undermining public health and eroding trust in health institutions.
The FDA's new vaccine framework dramatically limits access to updated vaccines for Americans over 65 and those with specific risk factors, raising serious health concerns.
