Ebola fears have forced two male strippers to adopt a hands-off policy for the next 21 days after sitting just three feet from Amber Vinson as she flew Frontier Airlines from Cleveland to Dallas on Monday night.
Texans Axl Goode and Taylor Cole called the CDC hotline after they learned that they may have been overexposed this time to a deadly disease.
But Goode was on hold for 81 minutes before officials picked up, he wrote on Facebook.
The two male dancers were placed in voluntary quarantine after authorities finally got in touch with them.

Flying with Ebola: Mr Goode is seen here aboard Flight 1143. Ms Vinson was less than three feet away during the entire flight
“Can’t touch this”
Ping.
I can only imagine the flood of lawsuits that will ensue because of all of these quarantines. Loss of income, stress, etc., etc.
As long as people can stick dollar bills in their undies without getting “bodily fluids” on themselves...there shouldn’t be a problem!
Oh yeah ... NY ... publik skool jernolist
First, it sounds like these two strippers are more responsible than Obama.
Second, while this reporter can come up with a lot of amusing word play with the fact that these guys are strippers, it won't be too funny if they end up with Ebola. The article should not have been so cavalier.
“Contagious Mike”
I applied for a job as a male stripper, but was told I was over-qualified.
“Elloras Cave”
LOL. Makes me wonder what happens if Ebola breaks out in the gay community. The government reaction will be ‘interesting’.
Off topic: looks like those “wedding plans” involved every aspect of the “nuptials”.
Can’t tell me it’s just a coincidence she happened to be sitting by a couple of male strippers on her way home from planning her wedding.
I thought the same thing....
This story could have had an entirely different outcome if Amber had only known that there were male strippers just 3 feet away from her on the flight...This qualifies as an entire show on Jerry Springer.
Axl Goode and Taylor Cole, who model for romance novel covers and work as male dancers, were returning from a convention outside Cleveland on Frontier Airlines Flight 1143 on Monday night and filmed themselves on board the plane.

The two friends were returning from making appearances at RomantiCon, a convention of romance novel writers and fans in Canton, Ohio,

Felling good today. Still no fever or symptoms. Texas health department contacted me and told me I was very close to the nurse. Kinda freaked me out. Still staying positive. Fingers crossed. Have a good day everyone
Uh oh. Explosive diarrhea could be bad for business.
If I'm watching the movie, instead of stuck inside it, I figure the next scene will be a cutaway to a secret meeting in an opulent, sterile room deep within the bowels of power. A small group is comparing notes, looking over the recent data, the "mistakes" and how the virus is advancing, laughing occasionally and all nodding approvingly.
The scene ends with a guy in a scientist suit closing his folder. He slowly looks up and turns to someone sitting just in the shadows, "The introduction has been successful. Phase 2 begins...just in time for the holidays."
“Overexposed”??
Bring Out Your Dead
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
