The fiance of Amber Joy Vinson, the second person to contract the Ebola virus in the United States, is under quarantine in Texas.

No name or age has been given for the fiance, who is in Dallas under self-quarantine, which basically means that he’ll avoid contact with others and alert officials if he shows any symptoms.

The man isn’t showing signs of the virus as of yet but will stay home from work for the next three weeks to play it safe, reported WFAA.

His employer, NationStar Mortgage in Lewisville, says the man called them and admitted that he’d been around Amber leading up to her diagnosis.

Senior management at the company believe everyone is safe.

“Our understanding is from the health authorities we’ve talked to is that since he was last at work on Thursday, and the person he was in contact with who has the illness didn’t show symptoms until this week, that there’s no risk or danger to anyone at NationStar because there was no contamination present in our building,” spokesman John Hoffmann said...

Is it my imagination? I just saw Nurse Pham looking pretty perky for an Ebola patient. Just sayin.

Ah, yes, the halcyon days when lawyers were the biggest annoyance.

Before I get flamed, I pray nobody gets anything like Ebola. I would not wish it on my worst enemy.

One thing I left out of post #41, is that if she knew, or should have known, that she could be exposing hundreds of people to Ebola, she could be criminally prosecuted on State and Federal charges!

Reportedly, a dose of ZMapp pulled Dr Brantly out of a steep dive in the space of an hour. This was before he was medivaced from Liberia to Atlanta.

Dr Brantly gave blood to Nurse Pham last Sunday.

If a nurse doesn’t know about infectious diseases ...

I have nothing to say.

She isn't the problem. The President of the United States is the problem.

Same here. Unfortunately, even good people will/have gotten it. In fact: "According to the 2008 National Census, 85.5% of Liberia's population practices Christianity".

I think Stanne just posted a powerful comment regarding the culpability of Vinson:

"If a nurse doesn’t know about infectious diseases ...
I have nothing to say."

I'm sure as hell not going to defend Obama, but Vinson cannot be absolved for reckless, and maybe even selfish, decision making.

Nurse: 99.5°F
CDC: OK
My analysis: It's the Obama Regime's fault.

Yep. The CDC is blaming everything on the nurses. If nurses know so much, maybe they should be running the CDC.

The fact remains, she did make the phone call.

And the answer and any subsequent consequences are Obama's fault.

I'd love to know how she voted in 2008 and 2012. LOL!

If she contacted the CDC for clearance, the government should be held responsible.

Of course, as we all know, no one is going to prosecute the government (i.e. the people running it). All that will happen is that Congress will hold a few hearings, and then one of the little people will be thrown under the bus. That is, if there are any little people left....

Hopefully, she's on the upswing. It would be extremely depressing if it were not so.

I'm sure Bentley agrees.
