Twitchy reported earlier that the CDC cleared nurse Amber Vinson to fly despite having tended to Ebola patient Thomas Duncan and reporting that she had a fever. ‘Wait. What?!?’: CDC cleared second Ebola infected nurse to fly despite fever. We’re not sure that exactly qualifies as “aggressive.”

You keep saying that. People don’t believe you.
@WhiteHouse Well, I'm glad that's settled. Nothing to worry about at all (rolls eyes)

That should fix everything.
We've gone from ignorant to obscene. Instead of worrying about offending people, CDC should have acted. http://t.co/QX1Zh2UATW
