Episode 6: The Dangers Of RFK Jr. And The ACIP

In this episode, we address a major and concerning topic in public health: RFK Jr.'s controversial decision to fire all members of the Advisory Council on Immunization Practices (ACIP).

I discuss the critical importance of the ACIP, the significant conflicts of interest of the new appointees, and the lack of scientific understanding among them. We explore the underlying motivation behind these moves, which can be summed up in one word: "vibes" over science.

This is a vital conversation for anyone concerned about the future of evidence-based medicine and public health policy.
