Man with "super TB", who flew on CSA, apologises for his actions

A 31-year-old American man infected with a rare and extremely dangerous strain of tuberculosis who flew on a Czech airlines flight to Paris recently has apologised for complications he caused. The man ignored doctors' warnings not to travel abroad. He said he deeply regretted his actions, but pointed out he had not officially been banned from travelling by US authorities. He is now under quarantine in the US. Passengers on CSA flight 0104 were advised to undergo medical check-ups for the "super TB". Health officials have said the chances of contracting the disease were low but could not be 100 percent dismissed.
