California, Oregon, Washington form health alliance in response to CDC changes on vaccine guidance ...Middle East

The statement from California Governor Gavin Newsom, Oregon Governor Tina Kotek, and Washington Governor Bob Ferguson said the West Coast Health Alliance "represents a unified regional response to the Trump administration's destruction of the U.S. CDC's credibility and scientific integrity."

Andrew Nixon, spokesperson for the Department of Health and Human Services, which oversees the CDC, dismissed the announcement on Wednesday, telling the Associated Press that the agency would "ensure policy is based on rigorous evidence and Gold Standard Science, not the failed politics of the pandemic."

The announcement comes two days after nine former directors of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention condemned Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s leadership in a New York Times op-ed over the Trump administration's firing of CDC director Susan Monarez and the resignation of other top CDC officials. Former Silicon Valley investor and deputy HHS Secretary Jim O'Neill was selected to serve as the acting director of the CDC.

The move was rebuked by top doctors' groups such as the American Medical Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics. Last month, AAP began sharing new vaccine recommendations that differed from U.S. government's advice for the first time in 30 years.. 

The announcement of the California/Oregon/Washington health alliance also comes on the same day that Florida announced it would be the first state to phase out all childhood vaccine mandates.
