Susan J. Kressly

Dr. Susan J. Kressly is the President of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), a leading organization dedicated to the health and well-being of children. She has been vocal in her criticism of recent changes to the CDC’s vaccination recommendations, asserting that the decision to weaken the birth-dose recommendation for the hepatitis B vaccine is irresponsible and could lead to increased infections among infants and children, despite the vaccine's long history of safety and effectiveness.
