“CDC chief seeks law changes”
By Amy Fagan
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
June 7, 2007

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “A top federal health official told Congress yesterday that federal weaknesses were exposed by the recent incident of a globe-trotting American infected with tuberculosis and called for quarantine law changes and better federal plans for notification and transporting the sick.

“Everyone was giving the patient the benefit of the doubt,” Dr. Julie Gerberding, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, told senators who asked why government officials failed to get a step ahead of Andrew Speaker, 31.

“We failed to take the aggressive actions we could have,” she said.”
