TB patient who exposed hundreds to drug resistant TB is a lawyer. He is claiming they never told him not to travel, but several doctors told him straight out that he was infectious. He is now in isolation, but a similar case of a non compliant TB patient in Arizona has the ACLU suing to get him free to infect others.
One would expect a person whose IQ is probably over 80 to check out the internet about these things, and I suspect that being a lawyer, even if he signed papers saying he should stay put, he would use the legal ruse saying he "didn't understand" the paper.
The bad news is that he was put on a "stop travel" list, but it was too slow to catch him.
Also, the stuff in the paper saying if the tests were negative is nonsense. it might take six months until you find out if you caught it.
