Questions Are Raised About Vaccine Panel’s Reliability as Policy Review Gets Underway

β€œThe announcement of health insurance companies that they’ll continue covering routine vaccinations is a huge vote of no confidence in ACIP's recommendations. It reflects a desire by insurers to avoid the cost of illnesses by having their customers vaccinated.”

RFK Jr.’s plan to link autism and Tylenol just piles blame on moms β€” again Autism has repeatedly been deployed to indict America’s mothers β€” and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s coming report is likely to fuel the fear already keeping young women from forming families.…

β€œIt’s worth underlining: Acetaminophen is the only widely recommended pain reliever considered safe in pregnancy.

Scaring women away from it on shaky evidence isn’t responsible, it’s cruel.”

We are fast becoming a banana republic, with two standards of justice. If you oppose the leader, you go to jail just for speech. If you're a loyalist, you get immunity for your crimes.

That's what happens in Iran - not the United States. This is a decision moment for America.

Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

Sen. Bill Cassidy: HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. expected you to change the childhood vaccine schedule, despite a lack of science or data to support that move?

Former CDC Director Susan Monarez: "Correct."

Dr. Susan Monarez: β€œI could have stayed silent, agreed to the demands, and no one would have known. What the public would have seen were scientists dismissed without cause and vaccine protections quietly eroded…I would have lost the one thing that cannot be replaced: My integrity.”

Monarez: "Kennedy demanded 2 things of me that were were inconsistent w/ my oath of office. He directed me to commit in advance to approving every ACIP recommendation regardless of the scientific evidence. He also directed me to dismiss career officials responsible for vaccine policy without cause"

RFK Jr. appoints five more members to vaccine panel The panel will meet this week and make recommendations for who should get COVID shots.

New Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) members just dropped in advance of the meeting Friday.

They are exactly what you would expect from RFK Jr. and this does not bode well for continued access to COVID19 vaccines.
