#208 Don't Expose Babies To Serious Medical Risks So You Can Collect a Paycheck

960 babies in TB scare at Kaiser in S.F. where a health care worker kept working despite having an active case of TB.

That is to say, they kept working despite being well aware of the risk they were posing to an entire postpartum hospital unit. That is to further say, they were acting completely in the worst interests of the babies they were being paid to care for.

The worker should be facing negligence charges for willfully endangering so many people but there's no mention of any pending charges in the article.

Rule #208 is Don't Expose Babies (or Anyone Else) To Serious Medical Risks So You Can Collect a Paycheck
