"I think when they started all this, they forgot that I spend my whole life defending people who are seriously hurt and need help" And then you expose Innocent people to a dangerous disease. Buzz off.

Not a bad job of pounding the table by a personal injury lawyer.

"This guy is an absolutely disgusting human being." I have a rare genetic disorder that makes me prone to infection. What would happen to me if I was sitting next to that selfish turd?

I don’t think that the odds of passing it on are terribly high. Now that I read this, I rather undestand it and sympathize.
I mean, I sure as hell wouldn’t want, if I was infected with a rare and potentially fatal disease, to be stuck in Italy.

"I mean, I sure as hell wouldnt want, if I was infected with a rare and potentially fatal disease, to be stuck in Italy.So you would jump on a plane and expose other people to this disease?

It would depend upon the odds. I’d have to at least talk to a Doctor - and, indeed, apparently this guy knew someone who could explain those odds (his Father-in-law).
Let’s put it this way - if he felt it was safe enough for his wife to travel with him, then I doubt if he thought it was going to pose any serious risk to people on the plane.
To put it more bluntly - faced with something like a one in one thousand chance of infecting someone else and a nearly one hundred percent chance of dying if trapped where I was, I’d opt for the latter every time, and I think that most people who claim otherwise and feign outrage are lying or not being serious.

He insisted that officials had never told him that he was infectious. They themselves never wore masks around him, he said, and never told him that he posed any risk to his wife or daughter. He is a liar or his doctors are incompetent. I think he is a liar. When I tested positive for TB the first question I asked my doctor am I a danger to my family and individuals I work with. He explained that since I did not culture out positive I was not and that as a precaution (prophylaxis) I would be put on antibiotics for a year.

This guy posed a threat and didn't give a shit who he could hurt. It seems you take the same position.

this disease was imported by Mexico and South America. Illegal immigration has brought about this resistant strain. It has also brought us CHAGAS, and a return of bubonic plague, and small pox. Not to mention bed bugs as well.
Everyting jiust about we have rid our nation of, is coming back with a vengance.
Welcome the return of the third world, and everything it brings with it.
This guy is being used by the press because he is not the usual suspect of who carries these diseases.

Ummmm, Plague has been here since the 1850’s.
The town fathers of San Fransisco refused to do anything about an outbreak until after it spread from the rats in Chinatown to the native ground squirrel population.
Feel free to draw any parallels to more recent plagues, and failures to shut down bath houses...
