Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has named eight people to serve on the Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices (ACIP), a highly influential vaccine panel he gutted earlier in the week.
The new members include Dr. Robert Malone, who worked on early research for mRNA vaccine technology and is a vocal critic of the mRNA COVID vaccines, as well as other medical experts who took dissenting positions from the medical establishment during the COVID pandemic.
Kennedy announced on X Wednesday evening that the eight new members are “highly credentialed scientists, leading public-health experts, and some of America’s most accomplished physicians.”
“All of these individuals are committed to evidence-based medicine, gold-standard science, and common sense,” he said. “They have each committed to demanding definitive safety and efficacy data before making any new vaccine recommendations.”
In addition to Malone, who’s the most well-known, the other members include Dr. Joseph R. Hibbeln, Martin Kulldorff, Retsef Levi, Dr. Cody Meissner, Dr. Michael A. Ross, Dr. James Pagano, and Vicky Pebsworth.
