CDC employees walk out to rally in support of ousted leaders

From MSNBC.

Kennedy Jr.’s anti-vaccine attacks on the agency and public health at large. Dr. Deb Houry, former deputy director and chief medical officer; Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, former director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases; and Dr. Daniel Jernigan, former director of the National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases, walked through the crowd, hugging former colleagues and accepting bouquets of flowers.
