I feel that this young man and his new bride are so totally selfish and self-involved, I can't believe it. I think he should be put in jail! He knew he had TB and had no business getting on an airplane to get married. His fiancee could have come here, even if they had a big wedding planned. Airplanes are known to be the kind of environment where people get sick since the germs are enclosed within the plane. He had no business bringing his germs on that airplane.

Then they just had to come back here because he could have died in Italy. What if someone on the plane caught his disease and dies? He had to know the risk he was taking since his father-in-law works for the CDC/TB unit. It's not that I want him to have died in Europe, but it was his decision to go there, and he should have lived with that decision. I'm sure there are wonderful doctors in Europe anyway. He could have rented a car and driven to another country.

Okay, I got that off my chest!
