Kennedy's vaccine committee endorses preservative-free fall flu shots
- On Thursday, a newly appointed vaccine advisory committee voted 5-1 to recommend single-dose flu vaccines free of thimerosal for children, adults, and pregnant women in the U.S.
- This vote follows longstanding concerns about thimerosal, a mercury-containing preservative largely removed from childhood vaccines since 2001 as a precaution despite no evidence of harm.
- During the meeting, committee member Levi raised safety questions about clinical trials of a new RSV antibody shot also endorsed that day, while Dr. Pebsworth abstained due to vote wording objections.
- Pediatrician Meissner emphasized that the danger posed by influenza far exceeds the minimal and unproven risks associated with thimerosal, noting that nearly all flu vaccines given in the U.S. during the previous flu season did not contain thimerosal.
- The recommendations uphold existing vaccine safety standards and support continued use of preservative-free flu vaccines, while recommending a new RSV shot to protect infants in the respiratory virus season.

There is no longer to be any recommendation for such vaccines. However, the Board voted for an equally highly problematic RSV vaccine recommendation for newborns. Mercury in vaccines has been highly controversial for a long time. Meanwhile, there are only a few vaccines that rely on …
Advisory Panel Stacked With RFK Jr. Appointees Recommends Against Flu Vaccinations
In public health news, a U.S. vaccine advisory panel has recommended adults and children no longer receive flu vaccines containing trace amounts of the mercury-containing compound known as thimerosal. That’s despite the widespread scientific consensus that the preservative poses no risk to human health — and does not cause autism, as a discredited 1998 study claimed. Thursday’s decision by the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices came af…
