Susan Monarez has been ousted from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) just one month after becoming director of the agency, according to a Washington Post report.

CDC and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

CDC canceled an agency-wide call scheduled for Monday, according to the report.

The Senate confirmed Monarez on July 29.

The news follows the shooting at CDC headquarters in Atlanta on August 8 that killed DeKalb County Police Officer David Rose.

Monarez’s nomination to the post in March drew criticism from some individuals associated with the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement.

Some criticized her past positions at the Advanced Research Project Agency for Health (ARPA-H) and Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), research and development arms of HHS. Others criticized social media posts written by Biden’s CDC Director Mandy Cohen that were misattributed to her.
