I have been sent home with a 103° fever myself for flu

so, I see no problems with this

Yes, but that’s in a general population where flu is expected.

Hospitals everywhere should have been on alert for possible EBOLA cases when this guy presented.

They really screwed up IMO.

Exactly. Are we supposed to quarantine every patient who shows up with a fever and stomach pains, vomiting and diarrhea? Hospitals simply don't have the resources. It would grind our health care system to a halt, killing countless more who can't receive care for other ailments because there are no available beds and no available doctors.

You think the ERs are fun now? Wait until we're treating every patient running a fever as possible Ebola. And this will be the end-result of the Duncan family/Jesse Jackson grift-a-thon.
