The second man with Ebola symptoms is reportedly a Dallas County sheriff's deputy who visited the apartment of first patient Thomas Duncan.

The individual, who has not been named, walked into a clinic in Frisco, Texas on Wednesday and told medics he had been in contact with first victim Mr Duncan and had not been wearing protective clothing.

The CareNow clinic was immediately placed in lock-down after the person appeared on Wednesday and was exhibiting signs of the deadly virus.

The CDC told MailOnline today that the person is not one of the 48 contacts being monitored, and there is no indication of any direct contact with the initial patient, Mr Duncan.

Seems to me the cop should have "sheltered-in-place" and placed a phone call to the medics, self-isolating himself until proper helped arrived.

Obama lost Iraq and has now ushered into the USA a horrific plague.

He said he wanted to treat the family with dignity

Never mind his own family

Metaphor for the giving away we do in this culture with disregard for caring for our own people

Foolishness

Never mind his own family

His family, his co-workers, the general public, not to mention the clinic workers and patients.....if this man is a Sheriff, who knows how many people he's been in contact with?

Remember folks, it’s extremely hard to get Ebola. Oh, it isn’t airborne either.

Hey Judge Jenkins? Did you hug and kiss your wife and children while wearing the same clothes you drove the ebola family to their new luxury digs?

How did you get those signed letters from the Texas health officials so fast saying you didn’t present a danger healthwise??

I hope JJ is shaking in his boots. I hope everyone near and dear to him is calling him on his idiocy right now. And his children’s classmates families too. I hope he is getting an earful from hundreds of people and is given proper shunning.

I’ve said, several times on freerepublic, that this duncan thing was a great experiment to see if this is much ado about nothing, or if it really is that contageous that we should be worried. I figured I’d withold judgement until the incubation period completed and we started seeing new cases, or a lack thereof.

I honestly speculated that it would be no big deal. I may have been wrong. The cases may start coming fast and furious. This may be a very interesting 72 hours.
