Instead of getting defensive, pause and reflect on the privilege you may have. It makes the argument look very different. #DiversityMatters #RepresentationMatters

Viewpoint: CDC's upcoming vaccine advisory meeting set up to sow distrust in vaccines
If you want people to trust vaccines, you donβt fire experts and give the mic to people whoβve spent years casting doubt. Thatβs not balance. It risks unraveling decades of public health progress.
Trust is built through evidence, not agendas that reject science.
