  U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Wednesday announced new members to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention panel of vaccine experts, days after he said he fired all 17 of its members. The new members are: Joseph R. Hibbeln, Martin Kulldorff, Retsef Levi, Robert W. Malone, Cody Meissner, James Pagano, Vicky Pebsworth and Michael A. Ross. "All of these individuals are committed to evidence-based medicine, gold-standard science, and common sense," Kennedy said in a post on X.

Dr. Mandy Cohen, previously the health secretary for North Carolina, has been appointed by President Joe Biden as the new director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), succeeding Dr. Rochelle Walensky. The announcement was made on June 16, 2023, and Dr. Cohen is set to assume her role in the coming weeks. Her appointment comes at a crucial time as the nation continues to address ongoing public health challenges, including the management of the COVID-19 pandemic and other health issues. Dr. Cohen's experience in leading North Carolina's health response during the pandemic, along with her background in public health policy and management, positions her well to guide the CDC in its mission to protect public health.
