On this explosive Independence Day episode of We Want Them Infected, hosts Dr. Jonathan Howard and Wendy Orent unravel a sobering transformation in U.S. public health. With agencies like the ACIP and NIH now steered by politically motivated leaders like RFK Jr., Vinay Prasad, and Jay Bhattacharya, science is taking a backseat to ideology. They dive deep into the disastrous ACIP meeting stacked with anti-vaccine appointees, the chilling disinformation from NIH and FDA leadership, and the real-world impact—from cancer patients being denied life-saving clinical trials to families unable to access COVID vaccines. This episode is a powerful wake-up call for anyone concerned about science, truth, and the future of medicine.

Recently, the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) met for the first time after Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. replaced its entire membership with new picks.In this episode, I'm sitting down with two new ACIP members, Dr. Robert Malone and MIT professor Retsef Levi, for a deep dive into all things ACIP.“They basically impact billions of dollars of revenue for the pharmaceutical industry. So there's big money at stake here. There's big policy at stake,” says Malone.“One of the problems that we had in the context of vaccines, and more broadly maybe pharmaceutical products, is that debate was considered confusing to patients and something that we should avoid,” says Levi.We take a look at some key discussions during the recent meeting, from thimerosal in certain flu vaccines to RSV shots for children, and what may happen with this committee moving forward.“What you're seeing here is a firm commitment on the part of these two volunteers, and I think the committee as a whole, in trying to be open and transparent to the general public,” Malone says.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
Every year, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) gathers to discuss vaccinations and make recommendations to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This year, however, the panelists are all new to the job and were all handpicked by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. — who has expressed skepticism of vaccines.Today on “Post Reports,” host Elahe Izadi speaks with two of The Washington Post's health reporters, Lena Sun and Lauren Weber, about last week's controversial ACIP meeting, and what the future of vaccines in the United States could look like under Kennedy's leadership. Today's show was produced by Emma Talkoff, with help from Elana Gordon and Thomas Lu. It was edited by Ariel Plotnick, with help from Reena Flores and mixed by Sam Bair.

The meeting marks the beginning of a new era for the influential vaccine committee. The FDA has named a psychedelic proponent as CDER deputy director, while Nektar has declared a Phase IIb win for eczema treatment. Experts say conflicts of interest among axed ACIP members are a "red herring," and the pharma industry is facing turmoil in failed immuno-oncology projects. Prescription drug sales are projected to hit $1.75 trillion by 2030, thanks to GLP-1s. Transitioning to the next news, a major pharmaceutical company has announced a breakthrough in cancer research, potentially changing the landscape of treatment options for patients worldwide. This development comes at a time when the industry is seeing significant advancements in personalized medicine and targeted therapies. Moving on to regulatory updates, the FDA has recently approved a new drug for a rare disease, providing hope for patients who previously had limited treatment options. This decision showcases the agency's commitment to expediting the approval process for innovative therapies that address unmet medical needs. In other news, a biotech startup has secured funding for its groundbreaking technology that aims to revolutionize drug delivery methods. This investment highlights the growing interest in novel approaches to drug development and underscores the importance of innovation in the industry.Wrapping up today's episode, we take a look at the latest trends in digital health, with companies leveraging artificial intelligence and big data analytics to improve patient outcomes and streamline healthcare delivery. These technological advancements have the potential to transform the way healthcare is delivered and pave the way for a more efficient and patient-centric system. That's all for today's episode of Pharma and Biotech daily. Stay tuned for more updates on the latest developments in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. testified in front of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce Tuesday, where Democrats confronted the health secretary on hot button issues ranging from his recent overhaul over the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) committee, Kennedy's recently published—and error-ridden—MAHA report, and his threat to ban government scientists from publishing in certain medical journals. Meanwhile, at the FDA, the mass exodus of senior leadership continues. On Monday, Jacqueline Corrigan-Curay, acting head of the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), announced her retirement as of July. This follows the ouster of Nicole Verdun—the wildly popular director of the FDA's Office of Therapeutic Products—and her deputy, Rachael Anatol. Their involuntary departure sent shock waves through the biopharma industry, as Verdun had been considered a stabilizing force at the rapidly reshaping agency. Speaking of the revamped ACIP, the new panel will meet for the first time Wednesday and Thursday to discuss COVID-19 vaccine safety, maternal and pediatric RSV vaccines and more, as experts question the experience and anti-vaccine views of some of Kennedy's recently appointed members and others express concern about the potential politicization of the committee. On the clinical front, Eli Lilly, Novo Nordisk and others presented new data from their next-generation obesity programs at the American Diabetes Association's 85th Scientific Congress. After failing to impress investors—and meet its own high expectations—with CagriSema, Novo sought to reassure investors by touting a safety profile “in line with the GLP1-RA class,” and Eli Lilly reported that bimagrumab, when used alongside Novo's Wegovy, led to additional weight loss while also preserving muscle mass. Finally, we recap BIO2025, where Jef Akst, Lori Ellis and Heather McKenzie moderated panels on cell and gene therapy, cybersecurity and AI, and accelerating market entry for rare disease treatments. Relevant to the latter discussion, congressional Republicans dropped the Orphan Cures Act from their version of President Donald Trump's “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” and congresspeople, including Rep. Gus Bilirakis (R-Fla.) at Tuesday's hearing asked Kennedy to commit to supporting the priority review program for rare pediatric diseases, which expired at the end of last year.

Send us a textThe healthcare establishment was rocked to its foundation when Robert F. Kennedy Jr. fired all 17 members of the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) in one decisive move. Dr. Robert Jackson and his daughter Hannah Miller explore this watershed moment and its profound implications for vaccine safety oversight in America.Kennedy's bold action directly confronts decades of pharmaceutical industry influence over vaccine approvals. The ACIP panel members—described as having "never met a vaccine they didn't love"—maintained deep financial ties to the very companies whose products they evaluated. This arrangement created an environment where rubber-stamp approvals became standard practice, culminating in the hasty endorsement of mRNA COVID vaccines for children without adequate safety data.Mainstream media immediately framed Kennedy's decision as "anti-science," coordinating messaging across platforms with doctors in white coats condemning the move. Yet this reaction ignores Kennedy's substantive criticisms: conflicts of interest that permeate vaccine oversight, persecution of medical professionals who question consensus, a striking lack of curiosity about vaccine injuries, and fundamentally skewed research methodologies that prioritize fast approval over thorough safety evaluation.The conversation highlights doctors like Peter McCullough and Robert Malone who faced severe professional consequences for challenging COVID policies, while examining how RFK Jr's new appointees—including Martin Kulldorff, co-author of the Great Barrington Declaration—bring credibility and needed perspective to vaccine safety evaluation.Why do so many medical professionals remain unable to acknowledge mounting evidence of vaccine harms? Dr. Jackson suggests this represents a form of spiritual blindness that transcends mere information deficits. The path forward requires not just better data, but a fundamental reorientation toward truth-seeking regardless of financial incentives.Are you concerned about conflicts of interest in medical research? Have you noticed how questioning vaccine safety immediately brands someone as "anti-science"? Listen to this essential conversation that peels back the layers of institutional corruption threatening public health.Support the showhttps://www.jacksonfamilyministry.comhttps://bobslone.com/home/podcast-production/

How long does COVID last? What's the new COVID study? Is there a new COVID variant? What states have measles? Is there a new RSV vaccine? AMA's Vice President of Science, Medicine and Public Health, Andrea Garcia, JD, MPH, covers measles outbreaks, new COVID-19 research studies, the latest FDA approved vaccine for RSV, plus how to treat gonorrhea with new antibiotics. American Medical Association CXO Todd Unger hosts.
In this episode of Medical Ethics Unpacked, hosts Dominic Sisti and Steve Levine welcome Jason Schwartz, PhD, associate professor at the Yale School of Public Health, for a discussion on vaccine ethics, public health infrastructure, and the challenges of maintaining trust in immunization programs. Together, they explore how the COVID-19 pandemic reshaped public attitudes toward vaccines, while also underscoring long-standing tensions between individual autonomy and collective responsibility. Schwartz, whose work focuses on vaccine policy and history, offers perspective on the systems and institutions, such as the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), helping to translate scientific evidence into public health recommendations. This episode comes at a time when ACIP is once again in the headlines as HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently replaced all 17 members with a new slate of individuals, citing concerns about groupthink and conflicts of interest. The move has generated widespread commentary about the role and value of such expert advisory bodies in shaping public health decisions, especially in the face of growing skepticism and political scrutiny. Ethical questions about equity, communication, and responsibility are threaded throughout the discussion. The hosts and Schwartz reflect on what it means to make fair vaccine recommendations in the context of incomplete data, and how institutions can maintain public trust amid scientific uncertainty. They also discuss how the infrastructure behind public health decisions—committees, advisory boards, and interagency coordination—can either strengthen or undermine confidence depending on how they function and how well they are understood.

When experts warn that the economy could be headed for a recession, people working across different corners of the economy get nervous. People working in healthcare, maybe less so. That's because of a longstanding idea that healthcare is impervious to recession. Okay, maybe that's overstating it. Healthcare is less susceptible than other industries. But did this notion hold up during the pandemic? During the Great Recession? More importantly, will it hold up now? This week on Radio Advisory, host Rachel (Rae) Woods invites Advisory Board Research Vice Presidents Shay Pratt and Vidal Seegobin to debate the question: Is healthcare really recession-proof? We are not economists, we are healthcare experts. So throughout the conversation, they reflect on how past dislocations affected the healthcare industry, and what leaders can—and can't—learn from these events to help them interpret the current turbulence. Plus, stay tuned to the end of the episode for a policy update on the ripple effects of Secretary Kennedy's recent shakeup of the CDC's vaccine advisory committee.

We begin today discussing Trump's trade deal with China. On the one hand, we were supposed to use tariffs to decouple from China, but this deal ensures that we get all the pain of tariffs but still rely on China for critical components plus bring in an unlimited supply of Chinese spies through visas. Next, we're joined by Nicolas Hulscher, epidemiologist at the McCullough Foundation, for a wide-ranging discussion on the progress and concerns on vaccines under the Trump administration. Hulscher explains why Kennedy's firing of ACIP members is transformational. At the same time, the approval of new, dangerous COVID and meningococcal vaccines violates his policy of only approving vaccines with valid control groups. We also discuss the shocking new reports on the scope of COVID vaccine death and new research that SIDS is caused by vaccines. Finally, I get Hulscher's thoughts on the Chinese bio-terror ring uncovered at his alma mater, the University of Michigan, at a time when Trump is promising to bring in more Chinese to our universities.

On Monday, Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. removed all 17 members of the independent Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices (ACIP) for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The panel is responsible for developing recommendations for safe vaccine use and the U.S. adult and childhood immunization schedules, and the HHS secretary appoints its members to serve four-year terms. Kennedy says the move will allow the Trump administration to appoint its own members and restore public trust in vaccines.

It's Wednesday, June 11th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Islamic legal system discourages Christian conversion in Brunei, Iran & Yemen Christians face significant persecution in countries that follow Sharia law like Brunei, Iran, and Yemen. The Islamic legal system is used to ban people from converting out of Islam to another religion. International Christian Concern notes, “The abuse inflicted upon the Christians of these nations is an open secret. … Forcing Christians into prisons — often under the guise of slanderous accusations, sexually assaulting Christian women, and forcing Christ followers into demeaning work has become commonplace in far too many nations.” Muslims experienced highest growth rate among religions Pew Research released a report on the growth of religious groups in the world between 2010 and 2020. All religious groups except Buddhists increased numerically during the time frame. Muslims grew the most, followed by the religiously unaffiliated. Christians increased by about five percent from 2.1 billion to 2.3 billion people. As a share of the global population, only Muslims and the religiously unaffiliated experienced growth. Christians and Buddhists decreased as a share of the global population while Hindus, Jews, and other religions held steady. Muslims have a notably higher fertility rate than other religious groups around the world. Supreme Court affirmed right of Catholic group to tax exemption In the United States, the Supreme Court ruled unanimously in favor of a Catholic nonprofit last Thursday. The state of Wisconsin had denied a tax exemption for the Catholic Charities Bureau in 2016. The case went before the state Supreme Court which ruled against the nonprofit. Nick Reaves, an attorney at Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, commented on the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling. He said, “When every justice agrees and says ‘Yes, this is foundational to our understanding of religious freedom, that you can't discriminate among religions,' that's really exciting for us.” RFK Jr. replaced entire Advisory Committee on Immunization The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is replacing the 17 members of the Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices. The committee makes vaccine recommendations to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The Biden administration had appointed all 17 members. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. stated, “A clean sweep is necessary to reestablish public confidence in vaccine science. ACIP's new members will prioritize public health and evidence-based medicine. The Committee will no longer function as a rubber stamp for industry profit-taking agendas.” The younger the kids of divorce, the worse the trauma The National Bureau of Economic Research released a report last month about the effects of divorce on children. The study noted that nearly a third of American children experience parental divorce before adulthood. Children had more negative outcomes the younger they were when the divorce occurred. Researchers wrote, “We find that parental divorce reduces children's adult earnings and college residence while increasing incarceration, mortality, and teen births.” Speaking of husband and wife, in Matthew 19:6, Jesus said, “So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, let not man separate.” Trump: We “will always defend right of every American to worship God freely” The White House released a presidential message on Pentecost Sunday this week. The message from President Donald Trump said, “Today, I join in prayer with Christians joyfully celebrating the descent of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost—one of the most sacred events of the Christian faith. We commemorate the fulfillment of Jesus Christ's earthly mission and the birth of His holy and living Church. "As we celebrate this glorious feast day, we also honor all Christians who, like the Apostles, have willingly endured persecution because of their faith. My Administration will always defend the right of every American to worship God freely and without fear.” On the day of Pentecost, the Apostle Peter said, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” (Acts 2:38) Lesson from The American Miracle movie: “God governs in the affairs of men” If you have not yet seen The American Miracle, the new docudrama about God's providential hand in America's founding, then get tickets to see it tonight. And bring a bunch of your friends with you. It's the last day it will be in the theaters. Actress Lauren Lael portrayed the daughter of a slave named Elizabeth “Mumbet” Freeman who was portrayed by Christian singer Nicole C. Mullen. Remarkably, the slave won her freedom in a Massachusetts court on August 22, 1781. This is what Lauren Lael said. LAEL: “I think that one of the biggest Biblical themes that The American Miracle embodies is, I think, a spirit of integrity and a message of hope and a message also of connectedness, that really exalts God. This is such a pivotal time that this type of message needs to come out.” People who have seen the film have been reminded afresh of God's intervention in American history. TESTIMONIAL 1: “Something that I've learned in the film tonight is that we cannot underestimate how great our God is and how powerful He is, and how much He does govern the affairs of men." TESTIMONIAL 2: "It really reminded me how great our country is, because the Lord ordained America to be great.” TESTIMONIAL 3: “I enjoyed it immensely. And I thought, if there's ever been any doubt about the faith and the beliefs of our founders, then this movie clears all that up and lets you know that, yes, they believed that God governs in the affairs of men.” Watch the trailer. Go to the website www.AmericanMiracleMovie.com, watch the trailer, click on the Tickets tab, type in your zipcode, and purchase tickets for tonight. It's the last night of a 3-night national run. 18 Worldview listeners gave $9,129 to fund our annual budget And finally, toward our midpoint goal of $61,750 to fund half of The Worldview newscast's annual budget by this Friday, June 13th, 18 listeners stepped up to the plate. We missed our 20-donor daily goal by two donors. Our thanks to Anna in Great Falls, Montana who gave $4, Trudy in Los Olivos, California and Gwyndol in Albany, Oregon – both of whom gave $25, as well as Cathy in Fate, Texas who gave $35. We appreciate Janet in Canton, Illinois, Ed in Ramara, Ontario Canada, Emily in DeForest, Wisconsin, Sheila in Phoenixville, Pennsylvania, and Jess in Forestville, California – each of whom gave $50. We're grateful to God for Titus in Omaha, Nebraska who gave $80, Kerry in Parowan, Utah who gave $100, Melissa in Great Falls, Montana who gave $110, and Calvin in Odessa, Minnesota who gave $300. And we were touched by the generosity of Elizabeth in Carol Stream, Illinois who gave $1,000, Keith and Lisa in Lansing, Michigan who gave $1,000, an anonymous donor in Texas who gave $1,000, Rick and Shannan in Lynchburg, Virginia who pledged $100 per month for 12 months for a gift of $1,200, and Scooter in Naples, Florida who will match all four of those gifts with another $4,000. Those 18 Worldview listeners gave a total of $9,129. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (Drum roll sound effect) $ 23,800.20 (People clapping sound effect) That means we still need to raise $37,949.80 by this Friday, June 13th to hit the half-way mark, to stay on the air, and fund our 6-member Worldview newscast team for another fiscal year. In an audience of this size, I know that there is someone who could fund half of that amount with a one-time gift of $18,974.90. A couple of you could give a one-time gift of $5,000. If you were one of 8 more people who could give a one-time gift of $1,000, Scooter in Naples, Florida will match you with a corresponding $1,000 gift. Could 10 of you pledge $100 per month for 12 months? And another 20 of you pledge $50/month for 12 months? We could knock this annual budget out of the park overnight if everyone did something. Just go to TheWorldview.com and click on Give on the top right. Click on the button that indicates a recurring donation if you want to give monthly.
