Point is he infected two people and one of them was extremely irresponsible.  She wasn;t feeling well when she left for Akron and she certainly wasn't feeling well when she returned. She knew the risks of exposure and she decided her wants trumped the need to contain the virus.  Dr. Nancy Snyderman acted in an equally selfish way but was lucky to have not contracted or spread the virus.  [/quote]

I'm with you on Snyderman, but Amber gets a pass.  She asked the CDC what to do.  They are at fault.  Amber may be guilty of a foolish decision, but not, I believe, a selfish one.[/quote]

I agree about Amber- [b]she sought clearance from the CDC before she traveled[/b]. Snyderman, OTOH, was fucking irresponsible and what she did as a physician was borderline unethical.

Snyderman should have been fired by NBC.

On her return flight only though.  Aren't reports now coming out that it appears she had other symptoms before her first flight to Ohio and why there are now 800 people being contacted/monitored?  (actually, not sure if they are going to be monitored/self monitoring - can't remember but would think since they are being contacted?)/

I do appreciate her calling CDC to let them know of her fever, and it's crazy she was cleared.  I truly hope she recovers, I feel awful for her that it seems she's doing worse than Nina Pham.  But if she wasn't feeling well before her first flight, that was a terrible call on her part to continue with plans.  Not just for the potential of exposing people- but for her own health!
