The Trump administration has canceled an upcoming meeting of the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) vaccine advisory committee, potentially delaying flu shot production for the upcoming season. The Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee, responsible for evaluating immunization data for the FDA, had planned to meet in March to discuss the composition of next year’s flu vaccine. This cancellation raises concerns about transparency and may complicate efforts to produce sufficient doses ahead of the next flu season, putting the timeline at risk.
