It was a week ago that somewhere between 700 to 1,300 CDC employees were laid off in the name of government efficiency.

The Trump administration fired 1,300 workers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention last week. Advocates for the world health agency staged a protest outside the Atlanta-based headquarters.

Nearly 1,300 probationary employees, roughly one-tenth of the CDC workforce are poised to be let go as a part of the massive layoffs.

Roughly 700 employees are believed to be impacted by the layoffs mandated by the current administration's Department of Government Efficiency.
