Summary
The CDC has reinstated about 180 employees who were laid off two weeks ago as part of Trump and Musk’s purge.
The agency is among several now reversing layoffs, including those overseeing medical devices, food safety, bird flu response, nuclear weapons, and national parks. The total number of CDC terminations stands around 550.
Many reinstated workers were outbreak responders in public health fellowship programs.
Sen. Raphael Warnock welcomed the move but warned that continued cuts endanger public health and national security.
Sounds like a series of bad decisions is required to persue that career path
God forbid wanting to pursue scientific curiosity and help people.
They get you young and naive enough not much different than the military.
