To emphasize @sarahkarlin-smith.bsky.social's point, in response to questions from Rep. Bilirakis specifically about the voucher program announced last week, Sec.

Lyn Redwood's history is as an anti-vaccine activist. She has no scientific or public health expertise. Using her to present before ACIP means Mr. Kennedy is no longer pretending that he is not anti-vaccine, or to care about science. www.cnn.com/2025/06/23/h...
