With a tuberculosis patient under federal quarantine in Atlanta, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says it’s working to find passengers who may have been exposed to a rare and dangerous strain. The Georgia man reportedly made two trans-Atlantic flights while being infected with the disease. The Italian Health Ministry is tracing his movements as well. This is the first U.S. government-ordered quarantine since 1963.
