Dozens of CDC scientists and staff were laid off amid federal workforce cuts under Trump, affecting critical health units.
Dozens of CDC employees, including disease detectives and senior scientists, were laid off amid a broader federal workforce reduction under the Trump administration, with the agency citing redundant roles.
The cuts, part of ongoing government shutdown impacts, affected key divisions like global health and outbreak response, including the team behind the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
The exact number of layoffs remains unconfirmed, and the White House and CDC have not commented.
The reductions follow a year of turmoil at the CDC and align with Trump’s pledge to shrink the federal government.
