Carol Masser: 我主要关注美国卫生与公众服务部部长宣布美国将削减对全球疫苗免疫联盟（GAVI）的资助，该组织负责为贫困国家的儿童接种疫苗。专家认为，这一举动可能导致不必要的死亡，尤其是在疫情无国界的背景下，这让我深感担忧。疫苗接种对全球公共卫生至关重要，削减资金可能会对全球健康安全产生严重影响。 Damian Garde: 作为一名健康记者，我观察到美国疫苗政策正经历重大转变。小罗伯特·F·肯尼迪领导的疫苗顾问委员会对疫苗接种时间表进行重新评估，这引发了公共卫生界的担忧，因为肯尼迪长期以来持有关于疫苗安全性的争议观点。此外，美国停止资助GAVI，这无疑会对全球疫苗接种工作造成冲击。这些政策变化可能会对公共卫生安全产生深远影响，需要密切关注。

The overhauled US panel reviewing vaccine data backed the use of only thimerosal-free flu shots for Americans, taking aim at a little-used ingredient that has been falsely linked with autism despite decades of evidence showing it to be safe.The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, or ACIP, voted five to one Thursday with one abstention in a move that would curtail use of larger vaccine vials that use the preservative.

Bloomberg News health reporter Damian Garde joins to discuss this and what else RFK Jr. is doing to reshape vaccine regulations in the US.
