In an announcement late today, RFK Jr. announced he’s appointing eight new members to the CDC’s vaccine advisory panel. Shaughnessy Naughton, President of 314 Action released the following statement in response:

“RFK Jr. will go down as the most dangerous Health Secretary in American history. With no CDC Director in place, and eight new vaccine critics selected to advance his discredited conspiracy theories — how America responds to outbreaks, pandemics, and preventable deaths are now in the hands of a small group of “experts” who are loyal to him. This was never about “radical transparency”, and it is a complete betrayal of the promise he made to leave this critical advisory panel untouched.

“We are calling on Senator Bill Cassidy to hold a hearing to investigate why all 17 members were fired and hastily replaced. The American people deserve to know what criteria was used to appoint these new members.”
