The car that transported Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan to the hospital is wrapped in plastic on Friday as a hazmat team prepared to clean the apartment in Dallas where he had been staying. Hazmat trucks pulled up outside the apartment, five days after he was admitted to the hospital and days after relatives, including children, were confined there by state officials.

This photo?
I don't think he's touching the boot, the hazmat guy is holding down the plastic while the other guy cuts the plastic. Regarding your comment on whether this was done for show or they're just stupid...I'd say both.

And then they stuffed the car into a Rubbermaid Mega-Bruiser 800-gallon trash can and rolled it out to the street for pickup.
DANG!

They tried to use bubble wrap, but the neighborhood kids were running up to the car and popping the little bubbles.

because they are LYING? they dont want people to panic, so they are lying.They send in hazmat teams to clean an apartment, wrap a car in plastic and post armed guards outside an apartment to keep people who might have been exposed from leaving...We see all that and they expect us to believe there is no risk of transmission?!

QUESTION "If it is not easily transmitted why are they plastic wrapping the car?"
ANSWER : KABUKI THEATER !!
They feel like they have to have shown that they are doing something
After all , we are paying Big Bucks to Homeland Security, who neither secures the Homeland , nor is it secure.
Five days after a contaigion event is about as effective as "Teats on a Boar " !!
To: Red in Blue PA
LOL. Now that really looks like a professional wrap. LOL
All that plastic looks like a serious EPA violation.

But they “washed” his vomit all over a parking lot so, what’s the point?

They might as well fly over Dallas in a crop duster and spray Obola vomit on us.

What happened to Duncan being transported in an ambulance? He shot snot, vomit and diarrhea all over the interior and they kept it in service for 2 days afterwards.

This is pure theatre. Just optics a knee-jerk response to the (well-deserved) criticism that the all powerful FedGov really isnt doing squat. If this was actually a best practices response to a serious infectious disease, they would have done it DAYS ago. It isnt.Worth repeating. This is actually even funny.
The CDC is lying indeed.

THIS WOULD BE ALL KINDS OF FUNNY IF IT WASNT SO SERIOUS.It is actually funny by comparison when you recall the precautions taken to bring Kent Brantley into the country.
