Democrats are demanding answers after Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. abruptly fired all 17 members of a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention panel that advised on vaccines.
Kennedy Jr., a prominent vaccine skeptic, axed every member of the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP)—an expert panel installed during the Biden administration that evaluates vaccine safety and efficacy—in June, replacing them with a motley crew of allies and anti-vaccine activists.
Democrats on the Senate’s Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee have now launched an investigation into the firings and are pressing Kennedy for answers as he pushes his “Make America Healthy Again” (MAHA) agenda.
