Note: Barbara Loe Fisher, founder of NVIC, posted this yesterday on X. The repopulation of ACIP will shape future vaccine policy. Removing members is only the start. Yesterday, I read that by revamping ACIP, FDA approval will mean “less” as there won’t be a rubber stamp awaiting from ACIP. It’s been almost 40 years since “The Act” that removed product liability to protect the vaccine industry. It’s been 4 months since vaccines have really been on the radar for change. Discuss freely – that’s what AofA is all about.

Dear NVIC Family,
I am delighted to share that our longtime colleague and friend Vicky Pebsworth, OP, PhD, RN—a woman of faith, devoted mother of a vaccine-injured son, NVIC Board member and tireless volunteer—has been appointed by Health & Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to serve as a voting member of the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). Her appointment, announced on June 12, 2025, means that parents who have personally witnessed vaccine injury will again have a seat at the table on a federal vaccine advisory committee where national vaccine policy is made.
For nearly two decades, Vicky has poured both heart and scientific rigor into NVIC’s mission. Since joining us in 2006, she has led our research and patient-safety initiatives, drawing on 35 years of experience as an ICU nurse, health-policy analyst, and expert in health research methods. Her prior service as a consumer representative on FDA’s VRBPAC and work with NVAC’s Vaccine Safety Working Group have earned her a reputation for asking the hard questions and demanding transparent evidence.
Vicky’s presence on ACIP is a milestone for every family that values the right to make voluntary vaccination decisions and informed consent. I know she will carry to each meeting the stories, hopes, and prayers of parents whose children have been harmed, and she will speak with the courage that can only come from lived experience and unwavering commitment to safeguarding the health and freedom of future generations.
We congratulate Vicky and lift her up in prayer for wisdom and strength as she undertakes this solemn responsibility on behalf of America’s children.
In the Spirit of Truth and Freedom,
Barbara Loe Fisher
Co-founder & President, National Vaccine Information Center
