A woman who caused an Ebola scare Friday and caused police to shut down a Pentagon entrance and a portion of the parking lot later confessed to hospital officials she had fabricated a story about recently traveling to West Africa, multiple government sources told Fox News.

Terrorist threat.
Amish?
Jail, please.
Serious. Jail. Time.
People have begun to claim “EBOLA!!” to get to the front of the emergency room line.
There goes her job.
I think mental illness. She didn’t appear to be invited to the ceremony either.
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.

Something wrong with this story.
Let’s wait and see what it is.
Soon that’ll be done to get employees to give them free McNuggets and leave the store quickly.
Why? Why would she do this?
Definitely charge her & fine her for expenses!
On other threads, I suggested (not advocated) that someone could make pretty big waves by being West African and throwing up in a strategic place, like the Capitol or the White House. Think of it as “projective protest.”
This bimbo proved my point.
Munchhausen Syndrome.
Maybe to get some time off. Remember the guy that set fire to the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard and destroyed a submarine so he could leave work early?
They should run her through the Ebola treatment, make her think she has it till she is in full panic mode then give her the bill.
Maybe we should bring back flogging...
It would be a terrorist threat if she said that she had Ebola.
It would be tough to prove as she just claimed to have been in W Afriica.
Today’s society/culture suffers because the weak and lame are coddled and protected. No more survival of the fittest.
Can’t last forever. Other people’s money and all that......
Munchhausen Syndrome.
People want their 15 minutes of fame.
And the news media is more than happy to provide the venue.
What a moron
I made sure I got my flu shot this year
Wouldn’t do to have flu symptoms in the face of an ebola outbreak
There should be some penalty for this like when people file fake police reports
Do really want to give the federal government the power to forcibly quarantine US citizens?
