California, Oregon and Washington ally on vaccines in rebuke to Trump’s CDC

The governors of California, Oregon, and Washington have formed the West Coast Health Alliance to safeguard access to vaccines, in response to the growing political turmoil at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under the leadership of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The alliance is a rebuke to the Trump administration's perceived interference in the CDC's role as a public health agency. The governors criticized the CDC for becoming a "political tool that increasingly peddles ideology instead of science." The move by the three Democratic-led states aims to ensure that public health decisions are based on scientific evidence rather than political agendas.
