I saw Dr. Frieden admit that she called during the congressional hearing this week. Here's the transcript from Brietbart (check the 1:27pm entry):

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2014/10/16/live-blog-house-ebola-hearing

"And Amber Vinson, the second nurse who contracted Ebola from the Texas hospital, reportedly called the CDC to tell the agency about her low-grade fever, but was told she could fly from Cleveland to Dallas. Frieden admitted that Vinson called the CDC but said he still has not seen a transcript of the call."

Something's not right here.

Obama is minor leagues when it comes to witnesses. IRS audit or some behind the scenes stuff? Boo Hoo

If this was Clinton she would have commited “suicide” while her hands were tied behind her back, her head would be missing and a coroner would say a dog ate it, and the only witness would have been killed in a hit and run.

THAT IS MY POINT...the CDC stated she had called. SO why backtrack now? To make this administration look good. They are liars!

Nothing we hear from here forward, from the media, will be the truth. Go to Twitter & search “ cruise ship Ebola” people on twitter saying lab worker WAS symptomatic on the ship!

Huh? Where did the “she called the CDC” story originate? Who started it?

If they were going to throw her under the bus, why didn’t they do it from the start?

Demand a full accounting of this.

"Miss Vinson did contact Texas health officials as she had been told to do, who contacted the CDC on her behalf…."

The head of the CDC has said she did contact them, but was unclear on any instructions passed to her.

I agree, but my BS meter went off when it was first reported that she called the CDC…and I have known more than one Bridezilla.

Only a few realize how deadly this is and how far it has gone and how insidious and now pervasive it really is. Let your conspiratorial imagination run wild and you will probably not have gone far enough.

The CDC story / response and testimony to congress has been completely fabricated. Frieden addressed in testimony questions about why CDC allowed this woman on an airplane after she “called CDC”.... not only was the testimony fabricated so was the subject.

Please call congress and tell them that we must be deadly serious about containing Ebola by strict quarantine within the United States and from infected nations. This is our right and our duty and it is THEIR duty to protect US.

Capitol switchboard is 202-224-3121 or Google your congressman or senator and get his contact information and call him / her office directly. You can also call or go to their local offices.

I believe decisive response is urgent because you can’t put this Ebola genie back in the bottle once it gets out. It is a fire, it consumes all the fuel it can get and the fuel is people. The only way to stop a fire is to block it from the fuel or cool it with water. A vaccine or medicine to treat Ebola would be the water and we don’t have reliable, enough or any.

Every possible measure must be taken to stop the spread before draconian measures are imposed. What is being done now is sloppy. We are walking a dangerous road. The threat is blossoming by the day if not hour. Almost every hour there is some new Ebola development and none of them are good. This is a serious and potentially deadly event. Unchecked it could destroy or weaken the United States and facilitate our destruction by others. It has that potential for every country and that is why so many are responding with such strict quarantines. These consequences, no matter how small the probabilities, demand a full effort and significant response.

Ebola is being spread here in the United States right now. First Texas, then Ohio then? Terror is an excellent weapon. It disrupts, confuses, paralyzes and destroys a society. Many others and we on FR have speculated that terrorists may spread Ebola. How do you that remember 9/11 feel right now compared to what you felt then? Do you want to gather your loved ones near you to protect them? I do. Even more than I did on September 11, 2001! Isn’t this passive response by this administration accomplishing the very same things a terrorist would want?
When something is being done that makes as little sense as what Obama is doing there has to be some other reason. I leave it to you dear reader to draw your own conclusions as to the reasons.
What is happening now is insane. It makes no sense at all. For example the head of CDC says: “Stopping travel from Africa won’t do any good because you have to get people into Africa to fight Ebola.” “You can’t get Ebola from an infected person on a bus but an infected person should never be on a bus because he can infect others.” “Blocking travel from infected countries would damage their fragile economies.” What about ours? What about our safety? What about resources we have paid for that should be protecting us?

Even the most despotic dictatorship in Africa has acted to protect his nation by strict quarantine and stopping travel from infected countries. Even CDC, the UN and WHO advocate and credit strict quarantine for nipping the spread of Ebola in the bud at the source in places like Senegal and Nigeria where both have had faster and more successful outbreak controls than we have had here. 35 countries have stopped travel of people from infected West African countries. It is so obvious even a child could understand it so why is it OK for people from infected countries to travel here?
I will post this message and keep posting it until someone stops me.

Then we need to know who her contact was. In this day and age, you can’t really say you have called someone without an electronic trail.

Thanks.

Hard to figure out why the CDC would say she’d called if she hadn’t. It only makes them look bad (er, worse) & even more incompetent.

If she did call, though, her family should know about it & shouldn’t claim she didn’t.

“Where did the story that she called the CDC—which was reported as fact—come from? Does anybody know?”

Here’s why people on the thread are correctly shocked: because that came directly from the CDC itself:

You are correct, Textide. Fox News has aired a clip of Frieden answering that question at the congressional hearing over and over. He said she called.

Yes, but this is being reported in the Brit press. I credit the Brit press more than the LSM

W wasn't perfect, by one thing I always picked up during crisis management trainings was that an weak tepid limp wristed leader can inflict more damage in a disaster than any one other element. Obolo is a prime example of that right now. W exuded calm, confidence, and was presidential. Obolo? (snicker)

In a situation like this, you would hope people would do the right thing.  But then some members of our society have never been taught to take responsibility.

Maybe a concerned friend called and did not tell her...pretending to be her.

I think he said in testimony there was no record of the call.

Between the Obama media carefully filtering the actual news and Pres. VJ threatening everyone.

The real facts are buried.

“How many people know where is Liberia? Do they teach in school? just ask people on street , they are clueless.”

If there’s an outbreak of a disease of that magnitude, it THEIR JOB to know about it, rather than play video games all day.

But even if you’re right, there are also COMPUTERS where the data is entered. Sorry, not acceptable.
