And your good uncle just had to vomit all over the place and share his illness with numerous people.

One of the very first things my wife and I do when taking our family out of the country is check our health insurance coverage at our destinations. If there are problems, we change our itinerary. It’s simply a wise personal responsibility. Apparently common sense and self-reliance isn’t a characteristic of the Duncan’s.

......And while the stories of my uncle helping a pregnant woman with Ebola make him sound courageous, Thomas Eric told me that never happened. Like hundreds of thousands of West Africans, carefully avoiding Ebola was part of my uncle’s daily life.

And I can tell you: Thomas Eric would have never knowingly exposed anyone to this illness......

interesting statement that he never helped a pregnant woman hasn’t it been confirmed he did?

in order to avoid culpability it needs be shown he did not lie on his screening form..which the dead woman assistance would negate someone has been talking to a lawyer imo..

You know, I cannot remember a time when our medical system in America was able to call down miracles. This article is so insulting but this is what we get for developing a welfare society to help people who do not understand the first thing about what it is to deal with a disease like Ebola with little or no information. Ebola is a plague-like illness and there is NO cure. Mr. Duncan was already sick when he entered our country and that very thing has caused widespread panic and untold cost to our citizens, not to mention the two precious nurses who are now ill because of him. We did the best we could to heal him but we are NOT God and we cannot perform miracles and turn back the events in the lives of people from other nations. If we continue to let people in here from those hot zones, we will get more of this ingratitude. Perhaps we should march in the streets until this is changed.

Most of us have jobs or disabilities. We’re not the type that march, protest, loot, riot and rabble-rouse unless pushed to our limits. Then all hell will break loose and Ferguson, Watts, the ‘92 riots and such like will look to be an Easter Egg Hunt or lyceum.

Of all the places worldwide, Thomas Eric Duncan choose that racist, hateful, backward country of The USA to travel!

No sympathy for the idiot who boarded a flight knowing he had it or was exposed to it. Now every single person who dies from it in the US is because of him.

Maybe Junior should be held financially accountable for everyone his ‘uncle’ has sickened since he lied about his exposure to a disease with a 70% kill rate that had never come to America until it piggybacked here on that Liberian.

Ain’t it cute how Junior is suddenly REALATED to a man his ‘ontee’ never married??

This has the fetid stench of JJ all over it.

“What is most difficult for Thomas Eric’s mother, children and those closest to him to accept is that our loved one could have been saved.”

Can this idiot prove this?????

Ridiculous statement.

All of the doctors in Africa couldn't have saved him. And, sorry to say, Ina sane world he'd have been turned away at the border.

Yeah, “the man” is out to get all you blackies. sarc
It was probably the evil white man the created through WHO, and introduced it to Africa just to kill the mud people. sarc It couldn’t have been through stupid behaviors with bats and dead people. sarc

Maybe instead they should have quarantined him in jail for attempted genocide or at least criminal negligence leading to the harm of another for:
1. In a country plagued by a deadly highly contagious hemorrhagic disease, hands-on helping a bleeding woman into and out of a cab that you share with her with almost certain blood contact. then
2. Flying to America and lying about your exposure

somehow, the statement seems so well written, I doubt it was written by the nephew.

“Eight days later, he died alone in a hospital room.”

Yeh, Josephus? Where was your pathetic selfish ass during his last few moments alone?

You Mr. Weeks are a disgusting ingrate. Your Uncle lied to gain entry into the United States.
Over 70 health care workers courageously acted in the face of fear to save his life. Two nurses have fallen I’ll with their selfless acts of compassion and duty.History will record the number of deaths attributed to the selfish, reckless act of Mr. DUNCAN. GFY!
