50 canceled vaccination clinics
After the termination of three CDC grants to Dallas on March 24, 11 full-time and 10 part-time staffers who worked in the epidemiology group to respond to outbreaks, including measles, lost their jobs.
The loss of those staffers forced the city to cancel the large number of vaccination clinics.
