Hundreds of CDC staffers gathered across the street from the Atlanta campus to cheer and applaud vaccine research and public health leaders who resigned or were fired. The CDC chief, Susan Monarez, was confirmed a month earlier and has refused removal; four senior leaders resigned citing alleged misinformation and political interference in public health work. The agency is overseen by US health secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr, who recently restricted Covid vaccines, removed scientific advisers, and cut medical research funding. Resigned officials received applause as colleagues emphasized science-driven decision making and vowed advocacy for CDC staff.
Let's get the politics out of public health.
Let the science lead us, because that's how we get to the best decisions for public health.
You are the people that protect America, and America needs to see that you are the people that protect America, and we are going to be your loudest advocates,
