Yesterday, absolute chaos unfolded in the wake of a federal judge's decision to block actions off HHS Sec. Kennedy's hand-picked (anti)vaccine advisors. The Guardian recounts the circus, with comments from me for Defend Public Health https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/mar/20/acip-vaccine-advisory-committee

"The most important factors affecting the vital signs for federal #vaccine policy, which we count on to help protect our country from vaccine-preventable diseases, are largely unchanged and continue to be dire: Kennedy is still leading #HHS. Anti-vaccine advocates continue to hold senior roles within the #CDC, and although ACIP is in limbo its appointees are a court ruling away from being back in business." https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/childhood-vaccines/viewpoint-uncertain-victories-mustn-t-distract-us-staying-focused-defending
