A government shutdown beginning October 1, 2025, triggered the furlough of about 8,700 CDC employees—roughly two-thirds of staff—at its Atlanta headquarters, disrupting public health operations and causing widespread morale decline.
Workers described the workplace as eerily quiet and emotionally draining, with many facing financial stress and uncertainty over job security, including potential permanent layoffs for about 1,500.
