I’d like to call out the work of two CDC career scientists— Drs. John Su and Adam Langer — for their evidence-based presentations and reasoned responses about hepatitis B at recent #ACIP meetings. Their professionalism and dedication to facts is so needed today.

Friends, Yesterday and today, I watched many hours of the CDC’s meeting of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). It was painful. But we learned a lot. That bad news is that our kids are going to pay the price for RFK jr’s views. insidemedicine.substack.c….

⚡ After today’s ACIP vote on hepatitis B vaccines, KFF’s Alex Montero shares poll findings on parents who report delaying or skipping the vaccine for their kids — and examines how evolving guidance could further link vaccine uptake to partisanship and ideology. #QuickTake on.kff.org/4oC523W
FF graphic featuring a quote from Alex Montero, KFF Survey Analyst, Public Opinion & Survey Research. It says “Our recent KFF/Washington Post Survey of Parents found very few parents (9%) report skipping or delaying the hepatitis B vaccine for their children, including 5% who skipped the dose entirely and 4% who delayed the dose. This is similar to a 2023 KFF survey showing that most adults overall stayed up-to-date on the hepatitis B vaccine, with just 10% reporting having skipped or delayed it.”

The ACIP conference, and how they decided to stop recommending Hepatitis B vaccines for newborns to reduce the risk of a potentially deadly illness which affects millions of newborns every year around the world, and how the world's richest and most "advanced" country decided to stop it.
