Juneteenth is not only a day of remembrance—it's a call to action.
At the National Medical Association, we celebrate freedom, progress, and the continued fight for equity in health care. Let’s use this day to reflect on our shared history and recommit ourselves to closing racial health disparities for future generations.

A Message from Virginia Caine, MD – 125th President, National Medical Association
The recent removal of all members of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) is a devastating blow to public health.
As a physician and infectious disease expert, I know firsthand how vital ACIP is to our nation’s safety. This federal advisory panel ensures vaccines are safe, effective, and equitably distributed, especially in communities historically underserved.
* ACIP is where science guides decisions, not politics.
* We need physician experts who understand the data.
* Vaccines are a cornerstone of public health, limiting access risks lives.
The NMA stands firm in supporting evidence-based vaccine policy and protecting access for all communities. We urge transparency, expert leadership, and continued trust in science.
