ACIP WGs conduct extensive background reviews of relevant research data to develop options for recommendations for use of vaccines in the civilian population of the United States. WGs are convened solely to gather scientific information related to vaccines and the diseases they prevent, to analyze relevant issues and data, and to draft policies or options for review, deliberation, and vote by the ACIP. |
