White House resisted letting doctor with Ebola return to U.S. - The Washington Post
Overview
The White House resisted allowing an American doctor exposed to Ebola to return to the U.S., a move that contrasted with past outbreak responses and raised questions about priorities. The case of a U.S. missionary physician evacuated instead to Prague and awaiting test results illustrates the practical consequences of those policy choices and the strain on decisions about repatriation and care for infected personnel. These developments add to concerns about limiting U.S. involvement and expert participation in international response efforts.
