Center for Disease Control

The Center for Disease Control (also known as the C.D.C.) is a location within Atlanta that the survivors try to reach in episode 5, Wildfire, in an attempt to find help from the government.

Story
After the devastating zombie attack on the camp killing a handful of campers, the remaining survivors decide to leave camp declaring the area unsafe. Before leaving, there was much speculation on where to head for. It was either the C.D.C. in the city or Fort Benning, an Army base 125 miles away from Atlanta. Ultimately, it was agreed they'd go to the center, though Morales and his family decide to head for Birmingham, Alabama instead. The survivors reach the complex, which is filled with hundreds of dead bodies, civilians and soldiers alike. Upon approaching the building, some zombies begin to rise, sending panic, since the doors of the building are shut and won't budge. They are about to leave when Rick sees the camera move and lashes out at it, demanding for the doors to open. The survivors are terrified now as it is dark and zombies are approaching until suddenly the door opens, thanks to Dr. Jenner, who is inside.

Dr. Jenner is a scientist working with samples in order to find a cure. Day 64 after the starting the work to find a cure, he is in the lab when he accidentally tips a vial over, causing a decontamination, but it destroys the valuable samples he needed, sending him in despair, in which he decides to get drunk over wine, until he sees other survivors outside and lets them in.
