He was here visiting family was the answer given, meaning NOT american citizen.

Lock down the freaking border NOW!

Perhaps the Ebola patient should go visit NBC news and sneeze on them see how they react

Why not, if the person was sweating and had just rubbed his nose or brow?

Q: Male? Age range? First case of Ebola ever?

A: First outside Africa with this strain of Ebola. Cannot comment on sex or age.

[Mom MD]

And here we go......

[who knows what evil?]

First ebola case on our soil...first beheading on our soil...what’s next?

[matginzac]

Probably if he/she drooled on it....

[Delta Dawn]

He is here to spread the virus...That is why you would let someone, ‘visit’ the US at this time...

[matginzac]

Amen...

Dallas TX. The person returned from Liberia on the 20th. The CDC admits that friends and family may have been exposed. (Then they go on to say that there’s no danger)

“Obama strain” - that needs to ‘go viral’ ON INTERNET.

[Oldeconomybuyer]

“Contact tracing” - systematic review of all contacts from possible onset of symptoms through infestation. Concentric circle approach. Need to monitor all contacts for 21 day.

I was in Phoenixville today, right by there. Rt.23 (Nutt Rd)

[Chgogal]

These government bastards knew the risk.

If you like your Obola, you can keep your Obola...

Fox News reporter just said that they are awaiting results from another person in Maryland who may have it.

That is probably the doctor who is in isolation at Bethesda. That test should have already come back though since he was admitted a day or so before the Dallas patient.

[katykelly]

What is the name of this CDC guy ? I didn’t catch it .

[TomGuy]

Dr. says they identify everyone who might have had exposure.

B.S.!!!!!

I was in a grocery story a week ago and I could not tell how many people I came in close proximity to or who they were. Several were employees and others were customers. And the store did not have many shoppers that morning.

Timeline: Arrived in US on 20th. Started treatment on 26th. Admitted on 28th.

Experimental therapy possible.

Who is going to tell a black guy from West Africa he cannot visit his family in America? That would be like IMPEACHING A PRESIDENT FOR BOMBING A COUNTRY WITHOUT CONGRESS' PERMISSION OR RELEASING 5 TALIBAN COMMANDERS WITHOUT NOTIFYING CONGRESS, OR FOR USING THE IRS TO MANIPULATE THE 2012 ELECTION, OR, OR, OR...!!!!

This press conference is very SLICK and has been REHEARSED, STAGED, blah blah blah..
