Secretary Kennedy’s recent push to strip COVID‑19 shots of broad recommendation is reckless and dangerous for public health. The CDC has shifted to “shared decision making” for COVID vaccines rather than endorsing them universally—an approach aligned with Kennedy’s controversial advisory panel. Such sweeping change bypasses decades of scientific review and undermines trust in federal health agencies. His purge of the CDC’s vaccine advisory committee is equally alarming. In June he dismissed all 17 independent experts, replacing them with handpicked allies. That move destroys institutional checks and replaces scientific judgment with loyalty. You must call for his removal, reverse these policies, and restore evidence‑based leadership to safeguard America’s public health.
