XDR-TB Patient Zero, Personal Injury Attorney and Genius-Who-Can-Be-Trusted Andrew Speaker. How do we know? Because he says so! “I’m a very well-educated, successful, intelligent person. This is insane to me that I have an armed guard outside my door when I’ve cooperated with everything other than the whole solitary-confinement-in-Italy thing.”
Andrew Speaker is a 31-year-old personal injury attorney. Which is fortunate, because he’ll have a greater grasp of the lawsuits one can imagine will be sent his way.
In another bizarre turn of events, Speaker’s new father-in-law is one of the CDC’s top tuberculosis researchers. A question that must be asked is how did this man get a disease that the hospital he’s in has seen only twice before, and exists primarily in Russia and Asia. The father-in-law has immediately invoked Officer Barbrady, assuring us that there is absolutely nothing to see here.
TB Patient’s Father-in-Law Is Top Tuberculosis Researcher at Centers for Disease Control
The father-in-law of the 31-year-old man under federal quarantine with a rare and dangerous form of tuberculosis is one of the leading TB researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, FOX News has learned.
Dr. Robert Cooksey, who works in the CDC’s Division of Tuberculosis Elimination, confirmed to FOX News that he is the father-in-law of Andrew Speaker, a personal-injury lawyer who practices in his father’s law firm in Atlanta.
Asked by FOX News whether it was possible that he had passed along the dangerous strain to his son-in-law, Cooksey said, “Absolutely not.” He added that he “works in the lab” and “is not authorized to talk about that.”
Fascinating coincidence no?
In addition to all the other bureaucratic screw-ups with this, one of the main concerns was how did this man, who was a walking deadly biological hazard , manage to get back into the country without being stopped. CNN reported this morning that the CDC and the DHS sent the passport warning to every port of entry, including the border guard stations at the Canadian border. When Speaker approached the border station he handed over his passport, it was swiped, but for some reason the border agent did not respond to the warnings associated with the passport, including an order to detain Speaker and call the CDC.
Instead, Speaker was ushered right through. He spent two whole minutes at the guard station. That border agent is now assigned to desk duty as the geniuses handling this from the beginning try to figure out what happened. Right now it’s classified as “human error.” Frankly, the entire CDC, the DHS and the Fulton County Department of Health should all be classified as a “human errors.”
Besides all the people on the airplane, has anyone thought about his WIFE? He placed her at the greatest risk of all. How much love can he really have for his supposed life partner if he is willing to expose her to this disease? She needs to dump this idiot as soon as the first court she can get to to file the papers.
I tend to take a day trip into Canada, while visiting New England on an annual basis. From my experience at the border, it’s a joke. Unless you say the wrong thing (and they actually pick up on it), or act very suspicious, they’ll wave you right through. It’s like they have Gomer Pile and company as the border guards. Needless to say, I’m not surprised he was able to cross without issues.
Golly, and the father-in-law works with TB at the CDC — in the LAB? Imagine that he knew what a bung hole this guy wanting to marry his daughter was, and decided to ‘save’ her from him with a nice neat (possibly even curable) little bug? You know, just delay the wedding and honeymoon for a few weeks, with a bonus of putting him in an isolation ward. It would be tempting . . . However, he must have miscalculated just what a self-obsessed pig this guy actually is.
The CDC spokesmouths say that only the people sitting near him on the plane need worry since this is most often spread by droplets, only people in his vicinity would be exposed, modern planes have ventilation systems that filter out TB, etc.
I have a question for these men of genius: What if Mr. TB Speaker engaged in a little activity known as USING THE BATHROOM on one or all of these plane trips? He touched the bathroom door, toilet handle, toilet paper, faucet handle, trash can… A passenger sitting no where near him could have been exposed to his “droplets.”
I’m sick of hearing how “healthy and tan” this clown looked, and I can’t wait to hear the release of how and where he contracted his case of TB.
I’m sure his bride is interested in that too.
Glad the security measures were working so well too, I’m starting to think the islamic-terrorists will look over here and see us self destructing.
