On August 28, 2025, the CDC lost its backbone. Four top leaders – Debra Houry, Demetre Daskalakis, Daniel Jernigan, and Jennifer Layden – resigned in protest after the firing of Director Susan Monarez. Their departures aren’t bureaucratic reshuffling; it’s a red-alert warning that science is being sidelined for politics. Today on ELLA, Dr. Haydee Brown and Dr. Sonya Sloan break down how one senator’s vote elevated Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to power, how public health has been sold out, and why working families will pay the ultimate price. This isn’t just a story about the CDC, it’s about whether science or politics will decide who lives and who dies in America.
