Thomas Eric Duncan, the Liberian man who died from Ebola earlier this month, had traveled to the United States after his visa was approved in August, the same month that USCIS announced the new relief measures.

I still haven't seen anything that would indicate Duncan's visa was affected by the policy. In fact, the wording kind of implies that his visa was approved before it went into effect.

Here's an approximate timeline.

June, he starts applying for a visa.

Late August, visa approved.

September 2, ticket purchased.

September 4, quits job.

September 15, exposed to Ebola. The people dealing with the girl reportedly thought she was having complications of pregnancy.

September 18, Duncan leaves Liberia.

The timeline simply doesn't allow for him deciding to come to America after knowing he was sick.

>>>The timeline simply doesn’t allow for him deciding to come to America after knowing he was sick.

I never indicated that that was the case. Just reread the text of mine you quoted. What it says is true:

Thomas Eric Duncan, the Liberian man who died from Ebola earlier this month, had traveled to the United States after his visa was approved in August, the same month that USCIS announced the new relief measures.

I go that exact quote from this site:
