VIDEO: Dr. Nancy Snyderman Apologizes for Violating Ebola Quarantine on TODAY

On this morning's TODAY, NBC's chief medical editor Dr. Nancy Snyderman discussed the fallout from violating her voluntary EBOLA quarantine, apologizing for "scaring my community" and adding to the confusion and chaos surrounding the deadly virus.

"I'm very sorry for not only scaring my community and the country, but adding to the confusion of terms that I think came as fast and furious as the news about EBOLA did," the doctor told Matt Lauer in her first appearance since breaking the self-imposed 21-day period of isolation.

She continued, "I wear two hats - I have my doctor hat and I have my journalist hat, and when the Science and the messaging sometimes collide, and you leave the optics, in this case a hot zone and come back to the United States, good people can make mistakes. I stepped outside the boundaries of what I promised to do and what the public expected of me, and for that I'm sorry."
