• Dr. Nancy Snyderman Returns to 'Today' After Ebola Quarantine Violation Backlash

    Dr. Nancy Snyderman will finally return to "The Today Show" this morning after a two-month absence. The medical expert returned from Liberia in early October and announced that she and her crew would be voluntarily quarantining themselves because one NBC freelancer with them had contracted the Ebola virus. About a week into that self-imposed quarantine, Snyderman was spotted out grabbing take-out in New Jersey. She issued an apology that sounded more like blame-shifting and the backlash was so bad that NBC has kept her off the air and in limbo for the last six weeks. For a while the network was reportedly debating whether or not to fire their chief medical correspondent. Before this major misstep, Snyderman was considered to be a credible and valued member of NBC's news team. The jury is still out on whether or not the viewers will continue to trust her judgment. Snyderman's first segment back will have nothing to do with Ebola and she is expected to once again apologize for her careless actions.

    There has been a lot of speculation in the last ten days over whether or not Dr. Nancy Snyderman would be returning to her post as chief medical editor on NBC after violating her voluntary Ebola quarantine. Snyderman and her crew spent weeks in Liberia covering the virus when one of the cameramen traveling with them became ill. His diagnosis on October 1 sent the entire crew back to the states where they were supposedly going to quarantine themselves for 21 days. Instead several of them were spotted picking up take out food in New Jersey. After weeks of backlash NBC has decided not to fire Snyderman just yet.

    While Dr. Nancy Snyderman's reports on the Ebola virus have become a regular part of "NBC News's" daily coverage on the epidemic, it seems she has had a hard time following her own advice. Snyderman and her news team spent several days reporting live from Liberia, and when one of the cameramen in her entourage was diagnosed with Ebola, they all returned to the States. While Snyderman has been phoning in her NBC reports due to a voluntary quarantine, the doctor has not exactly stayed indoors.

  • NBC Crew Under Mandatory Ebola Quarantine After Violating Original Voluntary Agreement With CDC

    An NBC News crew has found itself in a bit of trouble this weekend. The network's chief medical correspondent, Nancy Snyderman and her crew that was stationed in Liberia covering Ebola had agreed to quarantine themselves after a cameraman working beside them tested positive for the disease. They returned to New Jersey about a week ago and was supposed to spend 21-days under a voluntary quarantine but apparently at least one crew member violated the agreement that was made with the CDC. On Friday the entire crew was smacked with a mandatory quarantine.
