A closer look at the new members of the CDC vaccine advisory panel

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has historically relied on outside experts to provide guidance on vaccine recommendations. However, the recent changes in the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) have raised concerns due to the inclusion of individuals with limited infectious disease expertise and some who have been critical of vaccines.

One of the new ACIP members, Joseph R. Hibbeln, is a psychiatrist and nutritional scientist known for his research on the effects of nutrition, particularly omega-3 fatty acids, on the brain. While his expertise lies in nutrition, his experience with vaccines is limited, with only one published paper on the topic.

Vicky Pebsworth, another new member, is associated with the National Vaccine Information Center, an organization that questions the safety of vaccines. Pebsworth has been vocal about adverse events following vaccination, particularly in relation to the HPV vaccine Gardasil.

Michael Ross, a licensed physician with a background in obstetrics and gynecology, has a diverse resume that includes positions in various healthcare-related companies. While he has been involved in the healthcare industry, his research on vaccines is not prominent.

Robert Malone has claimed to be one of the inventors of mRNA technology but has also been known for spreading misinformation about vaccines. His views on vaccine safety have been controversial, particularly during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Martin Kulldorff, a Swedish biostatistician, has been critical of public health experts during the pandemic and has advocated for lifting lockdowns to achieve herd immunity. His opposition to pandemic policies, including vaccine mandates, has garnered attention.

Cody Meissner, a professor of pediatrics, has served on ACIP in the past and has been involved in vaccine safety discussions. While he has expressed some concerns about Covid-19 vaccine recommendations, he has also acknowledged the importance of vaccines in saving lives.

Retsef Levi, a professor at MIT, focuses on health care management and supply chain issues. While he has raised questions about the safety of Covid-19 vaccines in some studies, his expertise in vaccines is limited.

Overall, the new members of ACIP bring a range of backgrounds and perspectives to the committee. However, the inclusion of individuals with limited vaccine expertise and those who have been critical of vaccines has raised concerns about the future recommendations of the committee. It remains to be seen how these new members will influence vaccine policies moving forward.
