The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) has rescheduled its meeting to April 15-16, 2025. Originally set for February, the postponement came as HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s confirmation prompted a delay to allow for public comment. ACIP workgroups continued gathering data during the postponement, and their findings will be presented at the upcoming meeting.
The revised agenda now prominently includes a measles update, while additional topics may be announced soon. Earlier plans for the February meeting had featured reviews of vaccines such as GSK's meningococcal vaccine and AstraZeneca's flu shot, along with anticipated votes on various vaccine recommendations and government distribution programs.
