For the first time since Robert F. Kennedy Jr. took charge of the Department of Health and Human Services, vaccine advisers to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are meeting publicly to discuss the nation's vaccine policies.

A meeting of the CDC's advisory committee on immunization practices was initially scheduled for February but was postponed, raising concerns among some scientists and those working in public health about political interference in vaccine policy. The two-day meeting starts Tuesday morning.

The committee's advice shapes access to and insurance coverage for vaccines.

"I'm reassured and very glad to see that it's happening," says Claire Hannan, executive director of the Association of Immunization Managers. "It's important to have this ongoing review of data and science, looking at the evidence that goes into the vaccine schedule in an open forum."

The advisory committee typically holds public meetings three times a year, which are live streamed online.

During this week's meeting, the committee's independent advisors will hear from CDC staff on a range of vaccines, including HPV, COVID and flu, and vote on recommendations for some of them such as RSV and the tropical mosquito-borne viral disease chikungunya.

The current agenda is similar to the proposed agenda for February, though it omits a vote on influenza vaccines that was on that agenda.

When asked about the change, HHS spokesperson Emily Hilliard responded on behalf of CDC: "ACIP agenda items are always subject to change depending on what the working groups have ready for consideration." She further clarified: "This was not the annual vote for the routine use of the influenza vaccine for the upcoming season."

The advisors are independent experts who volunteer to serve on the committee. Dorit Reiss, a law professor at UC Law, San Francisco, says she expects them to remain independent and hold thoughtful, rigorous discussions as they usually do.
