Nothing to see here. He just had the fish.
You are going to think that the Duncan “outbreak” was a stubbed toe after Ebola breaks out in NYC.
Unlike almost all the “suspected Ebola” in the news, this could be real.
He should have taken the city bus to the hospital...after all, Clown Prince nobola said you couldn’t catch it on a bus. That said, I hope he doesn’t have ebola and that he recovers.
Praying that it is NOT Ebola.
Wonderful.
Which Doctor who? Baker? Tennant? Capaldi?

What is the number in his recent 10-day “acquaintance and contact” profile?
If anyone ends up getting Ebola back after they tested to have been cleared from it, that's when I'd get real cautious. I get the feeling they don't know what they're doing, and it's all about "reassuring the public" and not affecting holiday travel.
JMHO
Obama is determined to import a more effective index patient than Duncan.
BTW, think of the freak-out coming this winter when flu and norovirus hit. Think they’ll have enough ambulances with police escorts for the millions that get sick with those?

The drama unfolded shortly before noon on W. 147th St., where FDNY hazardous materials specialists sealed off the apartment as EMS rushed the doctor, clad in an exposure suit, to Bellevue. He told authorities that he recently got back from Guinea, where he had been treating patients.

Bellevue? We may get to see exactly how "super completely ultra ready" New York's hospitals are to treat Ebola (as is claimed by Gov. Cuomo and Mayor de Blasio).
Prayers for the good doctor.
There’s no chance Obola hugged HIM, is there?
So, basically if there was a travel ban with a 21 day incubation hold before admittance to the US, the doctor would still be over there and not infecting anyone over here.
Evidently the screening at the airports which started over ten days ago, didn’t do squat.
“Today, EMS HAZ TAC Units transferred to Bellevue Hospital a patient who presented a fever and gastrointestinal symptoms.
The patient is a health care worker who returned to the U.S. within the past 21 days from one of the three countries currently facing the outbreak of this virus.
The patient was transported by a specially trained HAZ TAC unit wearing Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). After consulting with the hospital and the CDC, DOHMH has decided to conduct a test for the Ebola virus because of this patient’s recent travel history, pattern of symptoms, and past work. DOHMH and HHC are also evaluating the patient for other causes of illness, as these symptoms can also be consistent with salmonella, malaria, or the stomach flu.
Preliminary test results are expected in the next 12 hours.”

I wonder how widespread this is and if were are just seeing those that make it into the media?
I hope he took the bus to the hospital...Obola says you can’t catch it on a bus. Obola always tells the truth and knows what he’s doing.
Meanwhile, De Blasio is trying to get healthcare coverage for ‘immigrants’.
Why bother closing the borders? We’ll just invite them all here for some freebies.
If the Harlem resident does test positive I see a diminished need for halloween candy in the Harlem area as trick-or-treaters may not be very numerous.
Doctor Who treated obola patients? Really?
