Statement on the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices

Last Updated

June 09, 2025

Secretary Kennedy’s allegations about the integrity of CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices are completely unfounded and will have a significant negative impact on Americans of all ages 

Scientific recommendations about infectious diseases and vaccines that the public can trust require established experts to make them.  

ACIP is a highly qualified group of experts that has always operated with transparency and a commitment to protecting the public’s health. 

Unilaterally removing an entire panel of experts is reckless, shortsighted and severely harmful.
