Timothy Cunningham, 35, a CDC employee, has not been heard from since Feb. 12, police said. Police are asking the public for help finding a missing Centers for Disease Control and Prevention employee who went home sick 10 days ago and hasn't been seen or heard from since. Timothy Cunningham, 35, went to work on Feb. 12 and left sick, the Atlanta Police Department said. Cunningham, who studied at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, is a commander in the Public Health Service and has been sent to respond to public health emergencies including the Ebola virus and the Zika virus, according to the CDC. The CDC in a statement called Cunningham "a highly respected member of our CDC family." Police said it's unusual for Cunningham not to contact his family. Cunningham's parents said they found his phone, wallet, car and keys, as well as his dog, at his home, reported ABC affiliate WSB in Atlanta. "It's not the type of news you want to hear," his father, Terrell Cunningham, said, reported WSB. "Thirty-five years old, but always your child. "This is an appeal to the public," Terrell Cunningham added. "We're seeking your help in bringing Tim back safe." The CDC said, "Our thoughts are with his friends and family during this difficult time." Anyone with information is urged to call 911 or the Atlanta Police Homicide/Adult Missing Persons Unit at 404-546-4235.

He seems like an accomplished young man, working in a high risk profession. If he mentioned any symptoms to his colleagues at work - that might be a clue of his ‘illness’. He appears to have made it home - by car, cab or bus?

Let’s pray he didn’t come into contact with some unknown virus for which there is no treatment.

Pray for his family too. Cannot imagine experiencing a missing son, daughter or grandchild.

Everything at the CDC is perfectly fine. There is no need to panic. The missing employee is not biting anyone.

Oh now THAT puts the story in a completely different light.

Feared dead? By his own hand or another’s? From the flu he warned about?

Odd.

Oh, my. Nobody will ever see that guy again. Not a wise career move to rock the boat in a government job.

“Cunningham’s parents said they found his phone, wallet, car and his dog”

This is indeed worrysome — he wouldn’t leave of his own accord without these.

I hope they will find him.
