RFK Jr. Anti-Vaccine Ally Dramatically Quits CDC Panel, Complaining of Drama
Robert Malone leaves the CDC vaccine panel amid disputes with Health and Human Services after a court blocked the committee’s vaccine schedule changes, halting its actions.
- On Tuesday, physician Robert Malone resigned from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's vaccine advisory committee, ACIP, following a federal court ruling that nullified the panel's actions.
- US District Judge Brian E. Murphy ruled Monday that the committee acted improperly, writing that of the 15 members, "only six appear to have any meaningful experience in vaccines."
- Malone's resignation followed a public dispute with Department of Health and Human Services spokesperson Andrew Nixon over appeals strategy. "Suffice to say I do not like drama, and have better things to do," Malone said.
- HHS Chief Science Officer Martin Kulldorff defended Nixon while confirming the departure, stating he can "sympathize with decision to step away." The agency has not yet announced whether it will appeal the court ruling.
- Malone's departure complicates the Trump administration's efforts to reshape federal vaccine policies through the "Make America Healthy Again" movement's goal to reevaluate childhood vaccine schedules before the court intervention.
