Chicago Department of Public Health is forwarding IDPH SIREN "Dear Colleague" letters from Dr. Vorha on the HAN, regarding COVID vaccine recommendations and the IDPH response to federal changes to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP).

On June 10, Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr. dismissed all 17 members of ACIP and appointed 8 members of his choosing, a move that did not follow the standard transition or reappointment process. This unusual step has raised concerns across medical and public health communities. The Chicago Department of Public Health remains committed to a transparent and collaborative approach, and is working alongside IDPH and professional partners using the most up-to-date scientific evidence to make our clinical and vaccine recommendations.

All attached documents are posted in the SIREN Document Library under HAN Notifications > IDPH News Releases and can be viewed by logging in to www.siren.illinois.gov.
