PING!
Go right ahead ,we need to spread this before the election ,D’oh
We need to make a timeline. I was under the impression she was one of Mr. Duncan’s caregivers, so how could she have had ebola before boarding a flight to Dallas?
So Dr Frieden whats the standard?
Is a fever 100.4 ( the oral temp standard we use everyday clinically) or not?
If not WHAT DO WE USE?
The confusion grows every day with these clowns
When I was younger, the CDC seemed credible and knew what the hell they were doing.
They’ve been infected(pun intended) with the same incompetence that permeates the entire government. It seems the only thing the government does well anymore is the functions which are AGAINST citizens. The IRS, EPA, NSA, DEA, ect...ect. (I KNOW I’m leaving out some)
The head of the CDC is a national embarrassment. He should have been fired weeks ago!
PING!
She was concerned enough to call the CDC. Everyone on the flight to Cleveland was also exposed. Plus the flight back to Dallas. If she caught it from someone who was infected and she was wearing at least some kind of protective clothing, how many people on that plane have caught it?
It's odd how every story says she flew from Cleveland to Dallas, as if maybe she walked or rode a bike from Dallas to Cleveland.
I assume she flew from Dallas to Cleveland, but no one mentions that trip. Maybe because of the shaky assumption that those infected with ebola are not contagious until they show symptoms.
It is sort of positive to learn that she did contact the CDC about here return trip to Dallas, but it's odd that the trip to Cleveland is seldom if every mentioned. (Of course, the answer she got from the CDC doesn't help their already battered reputation.)
“On Wednesday, at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas, only three or four children were at an infant and child day-care center. It was a cloudless day, but on a baseball-field-size playground outside, there was nobody to be seen; the tricycles, slides and plastic toys — all untouched.
The only sign of life: one crow, sitting on a fence.”

Wow. That sounds apocalyptic. I have written part of a novel on this topic...(not ebola), and that image sends chills down my spine.
I am supposed to make arrangements to fly out to Chicago (from Ottawa, Canada) to see my dad, sister and others. Now I seriously regret not having gone earlier.
My father’s immune system is compromised (I did read on an earlier thread somewhere that it may be a good thing, that people with the AIDs virus were less likely to get this? But that was a couple of days ago and I have no idea where on FR I saw that).
In any case, I don’t want to spread this to my dad. And at the same time, though, I am getting very concerned about my children, 15 and 19. They haven’t seen their grandfather in a long time. But I don’t want to put them into tight quarters on an airplane, etc. Public washrooms in an airport... etc. etc.
This whole situation ... stinks. Right before the holidays, right before flu season.
Stay safe, everyone.
The guy/gal she sat next to must be sweating bullets:
So what do you do, young lady?
Oh, I’m a nurse! In fact I’ve been nursing that individual you may have heard about on the news. Well, I’m a little tired now and a little flushed, so I’m just going to shut my eyes.
:’O
Belton ISD student was on flight with 2nd Ebola-infected nurse
Apparently, a middle school student from the Belton, TX area was also on board Frontier 1143, and attended classes on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Oh, boy...here's where it may start to get hairy.
Frontier Airlines welcomes everyone aboard, and we hope you have a nice flight to Dallas. We’ve been informed we have an Ebola infected passenger, but there is no need to worry. We suggest everyone self quarantine for the duration of this flight and for the next 25 days. And for safety purposes, we suggest everyone perform and anal temperature examine when you get to your destination.
Have a nice flight and be sure to use Frontier Airlines in the future.
There was a time when CDC stood for “Centers for Disease Control and Prevention”.
With Obama and his corrupt and treasonist democrats in power, it has become:
CDC = Centers for Deception - Confusion and Propaganda.
That is one stupid, stupid nurse. She gives us a bad name. IF she recovers, take away her license. Nobody that stupid should ever be allowed near sharp objects.
The local news said, and I am paraphrasing, but believe the content to be correct, that she had asked the CDC if she should fly.
CDC said NO!
Now that’s the gist of it. Somebody is lyin. Period.
