The care worker that contracted ebola and was transported to Georgia for treatment, when asked what his plans were after being given a "clean bill of health", did not rule out returning to the same coutry (where he caught it) to resume his care work.

Now while I do commend him for his dedication to his work, I would definitely question his choice of returning to the same environment to risk getting re-infected, and run the added risk of getting infected and (because of the medications that he was treated with already) developing a drug resistant strain or maybe an airborne virus that can be spread by just breathing the same air.

Mock me if you will, but I would hate to be "patient zero" that causes a global medical disaster.

I am a legend in my own mind!
