One Selfish Bastard
Andrew Speaker - Here's one idiot who thinks ONLY of himself. He admits he was advised not to travel, but he wasn't forbidden. Now he's complaining that the CDC has "abandoned" him. What a crock. This guy really pisses me off and gets absolutely no sympathy from me.
He accused the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of abandoning him by asking him to check into a health facility in Rome instead of returning to the United States via commercial airliner for treatment. Speaker and his wife said the government refused to help arrange alternate transportation home.Maybe you could have died. If you felt that way, why the hell did you jump on a plane and threaten the lives of hundreds if not thousands more? This is the kind of crap one expects from a self-centered, globe-trotting, lawyer who obviously looks out only for himself and like most lawyers is looking for someone else to take the blame for his screwups.
"Why are you abandoning me like this and asking me to turn myself over for an indefinite time?" Speaker said. "It's very real that I could have died there ... I felt very abandoned."
Grow up Andy and take some responsibilities for your own actions. I am sorry you caught the disease, but I'm not at all sorry for the way anyone has treated you since. You decided to put your own selfish interests in front of society, so now suck it up and pay the consequences.
