Still wondering what happened to Harvard and Morehouse-trained Dr. Timonthy Cunningham, a CDC scientist and researcher in Atlanta. Dr. Cunningham had been doing research on "Vital Signs: Racial Disparities in Age-Specific Mortality Among Blacks or African Americans — United States, 1999–2015." (https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/66/wr/mm6617e1.htm)
According to the report's conclusion, "...blacks had significantly lower educational attainment and home ownership and almost twice the proportion of households living below the poverty level and unemployed than whites in all age groups. Such social factors are posited as 'fundamental causes' because they influence chronic conditions, related behaviors, health-related quality of life, and health care utilization by constraining persons’ abilities to engage in prevention or treatment (7,8). These differences in 'fundamental causes,' health behaviors, and access to health care contribute to the excess deaths and chronic conditions among younger black adults that are most common among persons aged ≥65 years. For example, blacks in age groups 18–34 and 35–49 were nearly twice as likely to die from heart disease, stroke, and diabetes as whites. These findings are generally consistent with previous reports that use the term 'weathering' to suggest that blacks experience premature aging and earlier health decline than whites, and that this decline in health accumulates across the entire life span and potentially across generations, as a consequence of psychosocial, economic, and environmental stressors."

Some say Dr. Cunningham, 35, may have been distraught over not getting a promotion. Others say there was some "whistleblowing" rumors surrounding the flu shot and the NRA's fight against gun control.
