NBC chief medical correspondent blames her team for violating Ebola quarantine agreement despite the fact SHE visited a soup restaurant

NBC chief medical correspondent Nancy Snyderman has dodged blame for violating a voluntary Ebola quarantine agreement by visiting her favorite soup restaurant.

The 62-year-old doctor made an apologetic statement to NBC News on Monday which nevertheless shifted responsibility for the breach on to the whole team.

Dr Snyderman wrote: 'While under voluntary quarantine guidelines, which called for our team to avoid public contact for 21 days, members of our group violated those guidelines and understand that our quarantine is now mandatory until 21 days have passed.

'We remain healthy and our temperatures are normal.

'As a health professional I know that we have no symptoms and pose no risk to the public, but I am deeply sorry for the concerns this episode caused.'

She added: 'We are thrilled that Ashoka (Mukpo) is getting better and our thoughts continue to be with the thousands affected by Ebola whose stories we all went to cover.'

Total arrogance!!!!
They think they are above the law because they work for the corporate/government media. I see a lawsuit if any of those restaurant employees contract ebola from this reporter or POS!!!!
