What the ACIP Announcement Means With Dr. Robert Malone

On Thursday, March 19, 2026, Dr. Robert Malone made a post on X announcing what he called a disbandment of the CDC's ACIP in the wake of the recent court decision in the AAP lawsuit:

"ACIP has been disbanded. The government’s response to the AAP lawsuit and judge Murphey’s injunction is to disband and then recreate a new ACIP committee, as this will take less time than would be required to file and prosecute an appeal. There will be no action from the government to respond to the defamatory characterization of the former ACIP members."
