US Minister of Health Robert Kennedy Jr. fired all 17 members of the consulting committee on immunizational practice at the Center for Control and Prevention of Diseases.
Kennedy said that the committee members are in a situation of conflict of interest, since most of them are financed by pharmaceutical companies. According to him, the committee did not reject any vaccine and actually stamping permission without proper verification.
The head of the Ministry of Health is a long -standing activist of the anti -infection, however, before approval to the post of minister, he promised to maintain existing standards. The next meeting of the committee was to be held on June 25. It is unclear whether it will be possible to form a committee again in such a short time.
