Quarantined TB Patient Says He Was 'Tricked' into Isolation

Andrew Speaker claims he was deceived by federal officials into being quarantined after being told he had a particularly virulent and contagious form of tuberculosis.

In an interview with theAssociated PressFriday, Speaker, a 31-year-old attorney who made headlines in May when he made a flight to Europe after having been told about his medical condition, repeated that that he wasn't aware of how serious health officials believed his condition to be.

He has been in isolation in a Colorado hospital undergoing treatment for the past month.
