DeKalb County Police Officer David Rose was fatally shot when he responded to reports of an active shooter at the CDC precinct shortly before 17:00 local time on Friday. Rose, a former Marine who had served in Afghanistan, died in hospital after he was wounded.

The shooter had expressed his "distrust of the COVID-19 vaccine."

The CDC Director [at the time] Susan Monarez said at a Senate committee hearing Wednesday that Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. did not call her after a gunman opened fire at the agency’s Atlanta headquarters.

Some CDC employees "feel the shooting has slipped into the background without even a public statement from the president about the attack on federal property or a sufficient denouncement from Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who oversees the CDC and has peddled vaccine skepticism throughout his career."
