Relatives of Ebola victim Thomas Eric Duncan who were put under observation by CDC after they visited him on the day he was taken to hospital are still waiting for an answer about what they should do 24 hours after they begged them for help.

Aaron Yah, 43, and wife Youngor Jallah, 35, yesterday told of their ordeal in isolation and revealed that they had not received direct orders to stay indoors.

Today MailOnline returned to the family's small apartment to find a family without answers, without power following violent electrical storms that brought down lines and running low on food, water and diapers for their youngest child.

Jallah, whose eyes appeared sticky and whose children were coughing, saw Ebola victim Thomas Eric Duncan on Sunday when he was taken to hospital

Apparently the CDC had a presser about 1/2 hour ago or so. Only NBC carried it?
Anyone watch it?

Bleach, bleach, bleach.

Better watch that kind of talk. There are FReepers who will berate you and tell you you'll die doing that.

Now it is just whoever you can find on YP.com?

Considering the feds have a myriad of [supposedly] competent personnel teams available, their calling The Dudes™ is highly suspect. And I'm the farthest thing from a conspiracy theorist, but, come on! Dudes™?! It couldn't seem any more blatant...

Who did Congress call when Senators and Reps got white powder in the mail?

Who cleaned up the Vince Foster brain splatter, Merry Maids?

Yep. If the CDC cannot even monitor the family of the first victim try to imagine if you will a world where there are 1,000 cases of Ebola.

Yep...I would anticipate a Federal job announcement like: Wanted: Relatively intelligent people who can walk around and advise folks in "at risk" areas about the dangers of Ebola.

Note: This position will not require constant blabbering on Blackberries, going to meetings just to be there, or organizing diversity functions.

The US can’t keep up with something as simple as saline solution. Ventilators are way down the list. Better buy your own today. Buy a complete Level 4 set up and contract out a nursing aide who’s already survived Ebola to care for you because the US health care workers will soon head to the hills just like those in West Africa have done. Not typed with any sort of sarcasm.

P.S. to job announcement:

“This is a temporary position only for the period of danger. To get a permanent position the candidate will have to be skilled at blabbering on Blackberries all day, going to meetings, and organizing diversity functions.

I believe it. I’m listening to CDC guy again. I’ve already mentally tuned him out.

FNC did. Frieden was mostly blabbering about how stopping flights from the infected countries actually INCREASES ebola in the countries banning the flights.

I think that’s when I started mentally tuning out. If we use our resources to protect America at home, we increases our chances. (is that about right?)

I suspect that every carrier flying our boys into Liberia is returning stuffed with Liberian exiles.

“intensely involved”. Medical Waster incineration question. If medical waste is “incinerated”, what about persons body fluids before quarantine? These people are a talking contradiction. Heard the “Judge” again with his drove them in his car story. Bottom line, if the CDC and the “Judge” are proven wrong, and it spreads, who is going to say SORRY we screwed up to the families of the victims? They were only aware Friday that the scene wasn’t cleaned up, but they are on top of it, the system is working, and they are “intensely” involved. And if I hear that their “contact tracing” is working (when actual contacts have said otherwise) I’m going to hurl.

That was the first thing I said when this started. Suit em up and fly them back to the hell holes they came from.
