RFK Jr. Dismantles Health Department Expert Panels
Ars Technica·
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s tenure has seen a significant overhaul of health department advisory boards. Over 75 expert panels have been eliminated entirely, raising concerns about the erosion of independent scientific advice. Additionally, several other existing boards have reportedly been compromised or corrupted, further undermining their integrity and effectiveness. This drastic reduction in advisory bodies could impact the department's ability to gather diverse perspectives and make informed decisions on critical public health matters.
