No shit.

Who had diagnosed him? Why is this a cause celebre when this country doesn't screen illegal alien entries, and generally States do not require screening for diseases such as TB that might affect food handlers?

his wife is pretty hot though

This is so obviously the case of Bush's appointees in CDC fearmondering the incident to do their CYA. The guy's future father-in-law, who is a tuberculosis specialist AT CDC, allowed him to go to the wedding with his daughter. Of course he was not contagious or that ill.

The people at CDC have no respect for the bitch Bush put in charge of the organization.

he was just as sick as before just has a better chance of being treated now.

Still what he did was disgusting and greedy
