Federal health staff have warned their safety is at risk in a letter to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.. It comes after a deadly shooting at CDC HQ in Atlanta. Those who signed the letter said that the attack "was not random."

Over 750 US Department of Health and Human Services staff on Wednesday called on Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to ensure health workers' safety.

A signed open letter said health staff were being put at risk by misleading claims about vaccines and infectious diseases and came in the wake of this month's deadly shooting at Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) buildings in Atlanta.
