Where is Boone?
Wonder if this is a Samaritan’s Purse missionary that’s returned from the hot zone.
Why is it that we assume that a person who is infected with ebola and survives is no longer infected ?
Find the vid of the guy on a USAir flight being escorted off the plane by HAZMATs. I think it was Philly to Charlotte.
this is getting old - a person who has been in a danger zone, has fever, goes to hospital - hospital says - 'no problem - go home'
few days later, oops.
If this first 2 indicators are present: been in ebola area, has fever -" how the heck about keeping them in quarantine at least for 4-5 days?
oh snap...im in Va on southern border but this is getting to close for comfort!

They are intentionally withholding critical information. Was this guy in Canada, where the seasonal flu has already started, or was he in and Ebola-infected region of West Africa? Its not appropriate to simply refer to "a foreign country" without communicating the critical information on whether that travel is relevant to Ebola fears.

-——Boone also is home to Samaritan’s Purse——
Tucked away in a valley just out of Boone is the surprisingly large Samaritan’s Purse campus. It is a very big operation
Several individuals interviewed in Liberia are actually based on this campus in the mountains of North Carolina
There have been a LOT of false alarms.
The CDC position is that they would rather a lot of people show up to be tested and turn out negative, than have one person tough it out at home and later turn out to have Ebola.
