Amazingly, the honeymooner who put airline passengers at risk of getting an especially dangerous strain of tuberculosis has a new father-in-law who is a Centers for Disease Control microbiologist specializing in TB and other bacteria. Health law experts say that Andrew Speaker, who is a personal injury lawyer, could be sued if others contract the disease. Health officials are trying to track down about 80 passengers who sat near Speaker on two trans-Atlantic flights.

One thing is clear about the honeymooner who put airline passengers at risk of getting an especially dangerous strain of tuberculosis: He can’t claim ignorance.
Andrew Speaker didn’t just have doctors’ warnings against flying to Europe, and again against flying back. As a personal injury lawyer, he presumably knew something about the dangers of reckless behavior.
