      Highlighting something important in this piece: committee composition is extremely important in what gets considered, and many of our institutions, like ACIP, were formed to make decisions in a very different context. Pointing this out isn't attacking current members at all.https://twitter.com/EricTopol/status/1383526211347836932 …

      Which experts from *which* fields isn't an easy or easily settled question, but it's very consequential. (And that's before we even get to the within-field disagreements among experts.) Medical doctors and public health experts, for example, do not have identical considerations.

          (And the above is an important point regardless of what one thinks of the pause, or even agrees with it... What considerations are relevant to a particular decision is an important question, something to consider before we can even get to discussing the decision).

          Fully agreed that voting member composition is important, but it should also be understood in wider context.https://twitter.com/pickettjessica/status/1382816219699548161 …

          With that in mind, you may underestimate the role of dedicated work groups or corresponding influence of the CDC secretariat in conducting analyses, framing options & driving decisions. Voting members largely reflect how those will be understood & implemented by practitioners.

          Jobs/responsibilities can lead to different conclusions. Each is accurate in area of ​​expertise. Epidemiolog/statistician for overall risk, DrMed for patient's individ.benefit/risk. Deciding for the community is another job, which sometimes depends on "the Zeitgeist"
