In a plot twist tighter than your leftover jeans after quarantine, the Senate health committee chair has officially asked to hit pause on a federal vaccine advisory panel meeting following a mass exodus of CDC leaders. No, this isn't a clearance sale at the CDC supply closet – multiple top brass suddenly decided to ghost faster than a bad Tinder date, leaving benches emptier than a Costco on Christmas Eve. The chair's move screams official panic, like canceling a Game of Thrones reunion when half the cast fades into the sunset. It’s a May 2024-'need-a-miracle' moment for U.S. vaccine policy, starring fewer experts than ever.
