CDC Turmoil Grows After Director's Firing and Internal Rebellion
Posted on Aug 30, 2025 / USA
The Centers for Disease Control is in crisis following the abrupt firing of its director, who pushed back against changing vaccine science. Her dismissal triggered an internal revolt, with multiple senior officials resigning in protest. In her place, an assistant from HHS aligned with controversial policy stances has stepped in as interim director. Epidemiologists, public health vets, and staff are warning that politics now outweighs science—just as flu and COVID season loom. Governors and public health leaders are scrambling to manage messaging and trust. The chaos is raising fresh concerns about how science and policy intersect in federal agencies.
