if you had a highly contagious, hard-to-kill, deadly form of TB

and health officials said, "don't get on that plane or you might start a worldwide epidemic." what would you do?

hop on a plane for paris, bitches! and when they try to quarantine you in italy, you definitely should evade the no-fly ban they placed on you and hightail it to canada.
The man is now at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta under federally enforced isolation after he was flown there from New York City on Monday in a plane owned by the C.D.C. He told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that he was planning to undergo an intensive 18-month treatment at a hospital in Denver, and that he did not understand why he was not ordered into isolation before he left for his wedding in Europe.

“I’m a very well-educated, successful, intelligent person,” said the man, who declined to give his name. “This is insane to me that I have an armed guard outside my door when I’ve cooperated with everything other than the whole solitary confinement in Italy thing.


ok asshole, they DID tell you not to go, and what do you expect when you ran away from italia? idiot.
to be honest, i actually understand his decision to go paris. it was his wedding and all, so we'll give him a pass on that. but to go through all that effort to evade a no-fly ban, OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A BIG DEAL. americans are dumb.

One word: lawyer. (and this is coming from one)

More details have come out since you posted this...from what I understand, he was strongly advised not to travel, but wasn't technically under any legal prohibition from travelling (at least when he went to Paris), so he decided that it'd be ok to go.

Selfish, and pretty much confirms the whole stereotype that we lawyers are trying to overcome. Thanks!
