US health officials to revisit vaccine policies using anti-vax tactics, experts warn

The article discusses concerns raised by public health experts regarding the U.S. health officials' plan to present data on child deaths and serious side effects attributed to COVID-19 vaccines at an upcoming Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) meeting. Experts warn that the publicly available data does not support these claims and that the presentation of such data could lead to increased anti-vaccine sentiment. The article notes that the ACIP plans to revisit recommendations for COVID-19 shots, as well as vaccines for measles and hepatitis B, later this week. The article highlights the potential for the U.S. health officials to use tactics typically employed by anti-vaccine advocates, which could undermine public trust in vaccine policies and contribute to the ongoing debate around vaccine safety and efficacy.
