DALLAS (AP) -- Texas Gov. Rick Perry says a handful of school-aged children who had contact with a man diagnosed with Ebola are being monitored.

Perry says health officials learned Wednesday that the children have been identified as having contact with the man and are being monitored at home. The unidentified man has been in isolation at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas since Sunday.

“Monitored” - what’s that? Call us if you’re not feeling well? A daily visit?

The sister of the first Ebola patient diagnosed in the United States says he told relatives he notified officials the first time he went to the hospital that he was visiting from Liberia.

Mai Wureh says her brother, Thomas Eric Duncan, went to a Dallas emergency room on Friday and they sent him home with antibiotics. She says he said hospital officials asked for his Social Security number and he said that he didn’t have one because he was visiting from Liberia.

So what happens say you were in the emergency room and picked this virus up. Do you or your family (say you didn’t survive) have a legal case anywhere, the hospital, government, family?

That ‘visiting from Liberia’ should have sent alarm bells ringing all over the place! Why were the docs, or PA’s most likely, so negligent?...................

Please please don’t let the Administration find out that Liberians haven’t been issued SS#’s yet!

Assuming that information was given the first time.

I would guess if he hadn't shared that info in the first place, a few days after "why didn't you tell anybody" type questions, the story would change.

Let me say this,”it is kinda weird that the Ebola has show up in Texas, the only state, who’s Governor is fighting Obama’s influx of Illegal Aliens”. This makes me very suspicious, could there be a concerted effort to infect Texas on Purpose and destroy Texas’s economy and make them beg for federal assistance? I know sounds crazy but with Obama anything is possible.

You are exactly correct.
The most basic step in controlling disease capable of becoming a pandemic is to HALT travel to and from that area.
Nope...President Obama instead sends troops to the "epicenter" to also potentially become infected.

President Obama is so outrageously cavalier about American lives. He despises American people, our beloved American heritage, and our American patriotism. He is such a dangerous man.
