From The New York Times:
Law enforcement officials said that Patrick Joseph White, a 30-year-old from the suburbs of Atlanta, opened fire on the complex of buildings on Friday afternoon. He had become fixated with the coronavirus vaccine, believing that it was the cause of his own physical ailments, officials said, and he attacked the institution that has been at the center of rampant conspiracy theories and misinformation about the federal government’s response to the pandemic.
The COVID vaccines are safe.
PBS:
A Georgia man who had blamed the COVID-19 vaccine for making him depressed and suicidal has been identified as the shooter who opened fire late Friday on the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention headquarters, killing a police officer.
The COVID vaccines are safe.

It's been a while since I blogged about my good friend Wendy Bell.
I have no idea what's she's doing these days (perhaps she's publicly apologized for the massive misinformation, who knows?) but when I was blogging about her, these were among the things I wrote about:
- April 20, 2023 - Wendy Bell spreads misinformation about the safety of the COVID vaccines.
- June 1, 2022 - Wendy Bell spreads misinformation about the safety of the COVID vaccines.
- April 29, 2022 - Wendy Bell spreads misinformation about the safety of the COVID vaccines.
And so on.
I'm not saying that the CDC shooter ever even heard of Wendy Bell. Not saying that at all. But he certainly believed someone else who spewed the same BS Wendy spewed.
And now a police officer is dead.
THIS is what happens.
