Today I will be answering your questions today live with infectious disease epidemiologist
.So many of you have been asking me about what’s going on at the CDC. The former CDC Director (who was ousted by Health and Human Services Director Robert F. Kennedy Jr. weeks ago) testified on Capitol Hill Thursday, saying she was pressured to change the childhood vaccine schedule and that Kennedy wanted to fire anyone who didn’t go along with his plans.
Just hours after that testimony, an advisory panel voted to change the recommendations for the MMRV vaccine (measles, mumps, rubella and varicella) for children under the age of four. A separate vote is expected today on the hepatitis B vaccine.
What does it mean for access to these vaccines? Will insurance still cover them? Can you trust the decisions being made right now at the CDC?
Jessica and I will discuss that, plus a new report on autism, and Kennedy’s Make America Healthy Again plan.

I cannot make the live today but I have a question. Did she watch the hearings? I only saw part of it, but was wondering what she thought of Rand Paul's comments. Like most Congressmen he wasn't asking questions so much as taking an opportunity to speak, but he seemed to be questioning some of vaccine mandates with actual studies. What does Ms. Rivera think about what he said?
Grateful you’re hosting this call. I can’t pause for it though, so I’m eager to see the rerun via video. Your input is always excellent and we’re all better for having been exposed to your knowledge.
Sharon, my husband and I were eager to see you at Restore Conference next week and are deeply saddened you won’t be able to participate.
There are only a handful of individuals we believe stand apart in integrity, knowledge and generosity to impart what we need to know in times like this. You’re def one of them.
Bless you.
With gratitude,
Bernice & Terry
