The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices was comprised of experts on vaccinations, including professors, healthcare executives, and physicians. RFK Jr's announcement uses language like "unbiased science" to ignore overwhelming scientific consensus on the safety and efficacy of vaccines. It also cites conflicts of interest despite the strict HHS requirements around conflict of interest disclosure.
