- 去年,该会议被取消,这是卫生部长小罗伯特·F·肯尼迪(Robert F. Kennedy Jr.)领导下与疫苗相关的顾问小组遭受的诸多中断之一。
- 肯尼迪长期以来对疫苗持怀疑态度,他监督了FDA和CDC的大规模重组,这一行动导致多名资深公共卫生官员和职业科学家被解雇。
- 公共卫生专家和国会议员对此次取消会议表示担忧,因为这一年度流程对帮助制造商为下一个流感季做准备而言极为罕见。
- FDA没有像往常一样举行公开顾问小组投票,而是内部确定了毒株选择,并直接向制造商发布建议。
- 该委员会通过审查疫苗安全性和有效性数据,并就疫苗是否应获得批准、更新或修改提出建议,为FDA提供咨询。

- Last year, the meeting was canceled, one of many disruptions to vaccine-related advisory panels under health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
- Kennedy, a longtime vaccine skeptic, has overseen sweeping restructurings at the FDA and CDC, moves that have resulted in the removal of multiple senior public‑health officials and career scientists.
- Public health experts and lawmakers raised concerns about the cancellation, which was unusual for the annual process that helps manufacturers prepare for the next flu season.
- Instead of holding the usual public advisory panel vote, the FDA made the strain selection internally and issued recommendations directly to manufacturers.
- The committee advises the FDA by reviewing vaccine safety and effectiveness data and recommending whether vaccines should be approved, updated, or modified.
