1. Will the postponed ACIP meeting be rescheduled?
2. Will public commentary be considered?
3. Is RFK, Jr., really going to remove and revamp ACIP committee members for perceived conflict of interests?
4. If current ACIP members are removed, what guard-rails are in place to ensure members and vaccine recommendations are not replaced with vaccine skeptics/skepticism?
5. The current administration recently paused Vaxart's research and development of their oral Covid vaccine, and RFK, Jr. is on record as calling Covid mRNA vaccines the "deadliest vaccine ever made." With that in mind, what is in store for future Covid vaccines as well as mRNA vaccines given he's our HHS secretary?
6. With respect to H5N1, Moderna had a major contract to develop mRNA vaccines, now it's paused and under spending review. Where does this leave us with vaccines for H5N1?
7. Is vaccinating chickens for H5N1 an effective strategy, and will it protect us from H5N1 turning into a pandemic?
Thanks Jeremy Faust, MD. Look forward to post meeting review as unable to attend live. Vaccinations, Public Health, Epidemiology updates & participation in International WHO, NSAID save lives as well as ensure healthy living.
Thank you so much, Dr. Offit, for being a trustworthy and courageous spokesperson during these past years and now with the current administration.
Physicians who are retired or in their later career years may not be as vulnerable to retaliation and to the consequences of speaking up as those in need of grant and other support for their research and professional endeavors. How then may these physicians be a voice in standing up to the misinformation and disinformation and the actions of the current administration?
What happens to research and trials that are subject to funding cuts? Are they "paused" and able to be taken up again when/if there's a change in the White House? Are there other entities that may step in to fund and continue medical research that the gov't cuts?
What is covid and flu vaccine availability in the US looking like in the next few years?
Will this jack up the prices of vaccines and make it unaffordable for those uninsured to receive much needed vaccines, thus causing additional health disparities?
We'll post the recording here soon.
1) will ACIP resume? 2) will there be updated covid shots in the fall?

One more: 8. Will the newly implemented tariffs cause supply chain issues for vaccine manufacturers?

Thank you both for speaking up!

What is the deadline for the US participation in updating the flu shot for the fall?
Logistical question - do I need an Instagram account to watch?
