The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine is applauding the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) decision to phase out all research on monkeys. The medical ethics group is now urging the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to follow the CDC’s lead and end experiments on monkeys.

In October, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the first time ever issued an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for a drug to treat dogs and puppies infected with the parasite New World screwworm (NWS).

The CDC is instructing scientists to end all research involving monkeys by the end of the year, in a move that will impact around 200 macaques and an unknown number of studies,

The rewriting of a page on the CDC’s website to assert the false claim that vaccines may cause autism sparked a torrent of anger and anguish from doctors, scientists, and parents who say Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is wrecking the credibility of an agency they’ve long relied on for unbiased scientific evidence.

The recall of a baby formula believed to be linked to multiple botulism cases is now being expanded to include all batches of ByHeart Whole Nutrition Infant Formula cans and Anywhere Pack™ nationwide,

The FDA said it received multiple reports that the baby formula is still being found on store shelves in multiple states.

Infant formula linked to a growing botulism outbreak may still be available for purchase in several states, the FDA said this week. The big picture: There were at least 31 infants with suspected or confirmed infant botulism linked to ByHeart brand formula as of Wednesday,

Unpredictable communication and a lack of transparency are eroding the industry’s and the public’s trust. The FDA, experts agree, needs to take control of the narrative.
