Dr Aseem Malhotra is a prominent British Indian Consultant Cardiologist who has long campaigned for a more evidence-based approach to Covid vaccines and challenge the pharmaceutical industry over unethical practices.
After working closely with with Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) leaders such as US health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr and National Institutes of Health (NIH) director Dr Jay Bhattacharya, he has now been appointed to a crucial role in US President Donald Trump’s health movement.
Dr Malhotra joins as Chief Medical Adviser of MAHA Action, a grassroots non-profit dedicated to research, education and changing legislation that benefits public health. He will be relocating to Washington to join the American movement with a focus on top three priorities in his new advisory role — revising dietary guidelines, cracking down on ultra-processed foods and pushing for a moratorium on mRNA Covid vaccines.
Dr Malhotra said: “We absolutely can make America healthy again in this electoral term. I'm not doing this for political reasons but to reflect the evidence.

“There is a pandemic of the vaccine injured. We can't make America healthy again if we don't address this.”
The leading medic, who has worked with the National Health Service (NHS), will not be formally employed by the US federal government but serve as a leading voice to advance its policy agenda. It comes as he called for a halt in the use of mRNA Covid vaccines until serious health concerns are addressed.
The President of the British Association of Physicians of Indian Origin (BAPIO), Dr Ramesh Mehta CBE, welcomed the move by a member of the organisation in the UK: “Dr Malhotra who is a long standing member of BAPIO, has held a proven track record of a campaign for the NHS to adopt more healthier lifestyle policies in order to improve patients’ lives.

“He has been a strong advocate of reducing the harms of overuse of medicines, causes of obesity, reducing sugars, fizzy drinks and processed foods in our diets and ensuring that the patient’s voice is heard in evidenced based treatment of medical illnesses. His advocacy work is to be commended and it is in recognition of that, that he has been appointed to a role that has the potential to transform the lives of the American population.”
