An email sent out to the Alcon staff by its CEO reportedly said that the ebola nurse’s boyfriend was admitted into hospital with “Ebola-like symptoms.”

Gotnews.com has received word from two different Alcon employees, both of whom asked not to be identified.

Alcon’s U.S. headquarters are in Fort Worth, Texas. It is an opthomological pharmaceutical company....

Just a random twitter post but telling:

@Malcmoore52: @JasonWhitely @wfaachannel8 Those Guys In charge ofthe EU In BrusselsR Barking Mad 33 flights from West Africa per day in2Brussels shudB 000

Disjointed..but basically saying 33 flights from Ebola hot zones coming into Brussels per day!! How many are coming here? What the hell is going on? Perhaps our only hope is if the EU bans the flights..because Obama is refusing to ban them.
Sounds like they are getting mad as hell. His open policy to Ebola exposed people is putting entire world at risk. Especially the western world.

The stock market dropped 200 points when the news hit about the 5 passengers at Logan airport. That's a real consequence.

That was a false alarm, as any trader with a brain would have figured out from the early news reports.

“for all we know the so called family of Duncan could all be dead.”

Yeah, they were moved to some secret location, so how are they doing? We need an update.

Agree . Sorry to jump on your post to make a vague sugar analogy. I am hopping mad about the whole thing. Apparently Brussels is getting sick of it too! Obama made it clear that these Ebola region people could come here without a problem. His invitation is putting entire western world at risk.
Maybe the EU will ban the hot zone visa/passport holders, since Obama refuses to for unknown and nefarious reasons.

A random disjointed tweet from someone below, but hopefully a good sign:

I'll read FR and other news sites on my phone, but forget about posting from those devices. They suck!

Give me a desktop computer any time.

Absolutely! Preferably with one or more out-sized external monitors.

Yes, this is the worst possible news. Yet Duncan’s family is yet in the clear, good thing. Perhaps the point in the progression of the illness affects the virulence of the virus?

The clock is still ticking on Duncan's US associates.

But your point is good. Ebola patients are most contagious when they are most ill.

Duncan himself is an example. The patient he helped move (having been assured she didn't have that Ebola thing, LOL) died a few hours later.

Man, I'd love to have one of those, but it seems there's always some more urgent priority for my money to go to.

I'm the last one in the house who's still using a (gasp) CRT monitor. It's not bad, though. It's a Sony Trinitron with awesome color and resolution. Figure I'll keep running it til she croaks.

Yes....I agree...I think it’s a very sane thing to do and it’s very easy...

It only takes one directive in writing.

But we have a 100% politicized leadership group running this country and they won’t do anything of that nature without the express direction of a guy who has voted present or never showed up for a vote= (decision)

Thus we are rudderless.

And that is the true crime, and the reason why everyone is worked up, not just you.

I may sound somewhat disengaged from this emotionally as I tried to explain to another poster, but I try to leave the politics out of it as well as the emotion, and suggest workable and frightfully easy solutions to the issue of commercial aircraft. This is something that could be done by Congress as a emergency law...Hard to predict if it would end up with the 200 or so others that are stacked up in the Senate, but it would be worth a try.

Soon all of Dallas will be under quarantine....

If I think of such a scenario for a moment - how would that be even remotely possible? Is everyone in Dallas a devoted prepper, one who can lock the doors and stay at home for a few weeks without a need to buy anything or to go to work?

That was going to happen anyway. This just moved it up a few weeks.

Liberian illegal alien Ebola guy has caused millions of dollars worth of damage..... My guess is 10 million so far. Will his worthless illegal alien family have the chutzpah to sue? This is getting more unlikely

They were both (nurse and boyfriend) caught early so will survive Ebola. But what kind of lasting damage does Ebola cause? To your brain and body?
I think it fries your nervous system for a long time and maybe permanently

Sometimes I’m ashamed of the callousness displayed here.

The keyboard and monitor place distance between how people should react and how they do. You are correct, though, it should not have been posted.

t’s possible that they being Liberian have some immunity from surviving it at an earlier point in their life.

I heard the restaurant “Dr.” Nancy Snyderman and crew slipped out to has lost it’s customers. Way to go, Nan.

Definite pecuniary loss attributable to the actions of one person or a small group...Actionable. Sue fast, sue hard. (I normally have little use for tort lawyers, but sometimes it helps to have one around).

I’m not sure how being diagnosed early means they will survive? Not with a 50 to 90% mortality rate.

Are there any other big clusters of them in the US? Don’t know.

About 25,000 in a suburb of Minneapolis. (also an airline hub). That's where Sawyer was likely running to (home) when he died in Lagos, and The Mayo Clinic is just over in Rochester, MN.

When we get enough cases, widely enough distributed, the official line will be that 'there is no point in closing the borders, because the disease is already here...'.

Just watch.
