According to US media reports on the 12th, during the "shutdown" of the US federal government, hundreds of employees of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention received wrong layoff notices on the evening of the 10th local time, and were once mistakenly fired.

According to reports, the U.S. Department of Health and Public Services¡¯ head of communications said employees who received erroneous dismissal notifications ¡°were never dismissed¡± and had been notified that they were not affected by the dismissal. The department officials said the cause of the incident was a technical error. The U.S. Government Employees¡¯ Federation said about 700 of the approximately 1,300 employees who received the notification had resigned, but about 600 were still dismissed. A former employee of the Disorder Control Center criticized the incident as ¡°purely administrative incompetence.¡±
