Ebola Patient's Sequestered Relatives Moving to Undisclosed Location
ABC News ^ | October 3, 2014 | By MEGHAN KENEALLY

Four relatives of the Texas Ebola patient who have been confined to their Dallas apartment are being moved to an undisclosed location, according to a Dallas city official.

The four people are going to be moved later today, according to Sana Syed, a spokesperson for the city of Dallas.

The individuals, who include three men and a woman named Louise Troh, will be moved once the Fire Marshall secures and contains the car that Duncan was in before being taken to the emergency room. Troh traveled with Duncan from Liberia and has been referred to as Duncan's wife by other family members.

I’ve been guessing you are correct.

No, she didn’t. she never went anywhere.

Thanks. It appears (as usual) that some dimwit reporter threw some inaccurate data into a news story.

The judge is the one who signed the court order requiring Troh and the others to be quarantined. He’s the one who gives law enforcement the authority to use force to prevent the quarantined individuals from leaving or prevent others from visiting the quarantined individuals.

Usually, any matters that the judge wants to discuss with the individuals would normally be done in his courtroom in the presence of attorneys for Dallas County Health and the defendants. We don’t want them transported to a courtroom. Let the judge visit them. They aren’t symptomatic ... yet.

This guy’s viral load must have been very high by the time he was admitted. He’s a goner.

My wife just saw a report that claims Duncan hasn't eaten in a week, and is too weak to talk.

If he expires, the lid's gonna freaking blow in this country.

There supposedly IS no more ZMapp.

That's right, peasant. Now stop worrying about all this and let your government take care of business, alright?

The details keep coming out. Last I read Louise has a grown daughter who has four children that Louise babysits for sometimes. The daughter is the one who called for an ambulance for Duncan. The daughter, her boyfriend and their four children are "semi"-quarantined elsewhere.

Thanks. That helps to make sense of the configuration of this family. It's been damn puzzling for the last few days.

I am certain there is enough ZMapp for this administration and their rich peeps.

Has anyone asked how this guy from Liberia is doing? Is anyone curious at all, because supposedly he is not getting ZMapp.

According to the Daily Mail, she was in Liberia during the outbreak. America's first Ebola case flew to US on a tourist visa - and his Dallas girlfriend was in disease-hit Liberia during outbreak

...."Details of Mr Duncan's life and relations to the U.S. are few, however he is believed to hail from the Liberian capital Monrovia where he attended high school.

His girlfriend Louise Troh also hails from Liberia, but it is not known how long the couple have been together, although they do have one son.

On a Facebook profile believed to belong to Ms Troh, she has 'checked in' as being in the Liberian capital Monrovia as recent as August 11."..............

No reason to ask. He's a goner. Been declining since admitted.

For those interested in why Dallas County and the State of Texas are or aren’t doing this or that with respect to the quarantined individuals, I recommend you read Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 81, Section 81.083, and Subchapter G of the same. It will answer most of your questions.

The law dictates what must be done and what cannot be done. While Ebola is new to Texas, infectious diseases are not. This has all been done before just not with all of America watching every word and deed.

A doctor in Liberia is having astounding success with an anti-hiv drug.

We know from Duncan’s nephew that the family is no longer able to speak with him by phone because he is too weak to speak. So his condition has worsened. How much is anyone’s guess.

Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins said today that he visited the apartment Thursday night to apologize to the residents for keeping them in the apartment despite Duncan's diagnosis.

Another person from Obola's “smartest man in the room” squad. I'm not too sure is was a good idea to go to the apartment. Did he go inside? That would show good sound judgment.

I’d say that happens when the four quarantined individuals are symptomatic. He was already very sick when he started receiving treatment. I will not be surprised if he dies.

That's good news, just don't let Obola find out. He'll send his jack-booted lackeys to shut down the manufacturer for some trumped up violation of an EPA regulation .. or something.

That is excellent news! 13 of 15 lived. The two who died didn’t get the medicine until it was too late. Very plausible.

No? Just watch.

Most people aren't going to analyze what's happening as carefully as you are. They're going to become terrified at the prospects of further spread and contamination if this man dies.

If his relatives become symptomatic, hysteria will ratchet up even further.

Of course, now that his family is being moved to "an undisclosed location" for quarantine, the PTB will be able to control what news we get about their fate.
