Critics fear that U.S. Department of Health and Human Services chief RFK, Jr., known for his antivaccine views, has picked a crucial CDC committee that will be a “disaster for public health”

UNC professor and behavioral scientist Noel Brewer was among the 17 members of the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) who were removed from their positions this week.

The announcement of the new members of the CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practice comes days after the HHS secretary removed all previous members of the panel.
