American College of Physicians Highly Concerned About Dismissal of Vaccine Experts from ACIP

WASHINGTON, D.C., June 9, 2025—The American College of Physicians (ACP) is highly concerned and outraged about today’s announcement from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) dismissing all 17 members of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). This announcement, coupled with the recent, preemptive actions HHS took on the COVID-19 vaccines that circumvented the standard, transparent vaccine review process, interferes with the practice of evidence-based medicine and destabilizes a trusted source and its evidence-based process for helping guide decision-making for vaccines to protect the public health in our country. Today’s announcement will seriously erode public confidence in our government’s ability to ensure the health of the American public and it will endanger the safety, welfare and lives of our patients. We call on the administration to immediately reverse course.
