Today the HHS Secretary made an announcement that will cripple the health care system's ability to prepare for the fall respiratory season. The #AAFP will always fight for family medicine and public health.

Today's decision is about undermining independent medical expertise and will only further endanger the health of the American public, especially children. bit.ly/43Bwd80

I was seeing patients in the ER when I got a text from a friend "How bad is this thing about RFK Jr removing ALL 17 experts from a CDC vaccine advisory committee?" Theres been a lot of hot takes on here already But heres why this makes me worry, from a clinical perspective 🧵

.Secretary Kennedy's allegations about the integrity of CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices are completely unfounded and will have a significant negative impact on Americans of all ages. Our statement: bit.ly/3SGaDcb

Viewpoint: RFK's reckless firing of CDC #vaccine advisors not supported by evidence Kennedy's rationale is based on a series of inaccuracies and part of a pattern of misrepresentation. cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/viewp… Photo: CDC

1/n The reality: since Mr. Kennedy became HHS Secretary he/staff have waged a war of antivaccine disinformation against the American people on a frequent/regular basis. He did this as U.S. experienced its worse measles epidemic in years, showing zero concern for our health/safety

Foreign aid can save lives and ALSO advance U.S. interests in the world. Its not an either/or. I argued in Think Global Health that foreign aid builds soft power when it is: ✅ Visible ✅ Altruistic ✅ Effective ✅ Aligned with country priorities thinkglobalhealth.org/article/us-sof…

My response to Secretary Kennedy's statements about me on Fox News today. It's time to set the record straight.

A groundbreaking HIV drug—lenacapavir—was approved today But too many around the world—including in places where the drug was trialed—won’t be able to access it I wrote about the inequities—and how we actually improve access—in a recent NEJM piece ⬇️ 🔗nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

We spoke to a group of MAGA, MAHA and independent moms and dads about what Medicaid means to their families. And what the BBB would do to them. We think you should listen. Thank you 🙏 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/why…
