...had been ordered by American authorities not to board a commercial transatlantic flight. But he slipped back into North America by flying through Montreal on May 24... "I think that's a question that only he can answer," Dr. Martin Cetron, director of global migration and quarantine for the U.S. Centers of Disease Control in Atlanta said when asked if the man flew to Canada to evade a U.S. no-fly order. "But we informed him how important it was for him not to take commercial flights, how important it was to stay put, what the options were for getting immediate assistance in Italy," Dr. Cetron told The Canadian Press in an interview. The CDC even dispatched a doctor — a former CDC TB division staffer who now works for Italy's Ministry of Health — to meet with the man to discuss how he could be safely returned to the United States. "When the ... ex-CDC physician went to meet with him and try to provide some reassurance — because we recognize it's a scary diagnosis — he had already left. Checked out of the hotel," Dr. Cetron said. Art

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
