Thomas Eric Duncan, the Liberian national who is the first person to be diagnosed with the Ebola virus in the U.S., traveled to Dallas to marry his longtime girlfriend and the mother of his 19-year-old son, the pastor of the woman's church told NBC News on Saturday.

The Rev. George Mason, senior pastor of Wilshire Baptist Church, said the church has been "doing whatever is permitted" to help the woman — who is named Louise and whose last name NBC News is not reporting — and the three children with whom she is in isolation at an undisclosed location in Dallas. "Because of the quarantine, we're limited," Mason said, but he said he's been in regular contact with her by phone and reported: "She's doing better now that they have moved her. The place that they're living in now is much easier now. There's less scrutiny, and it's more private."(continued)

Well, isn’t that special. Such a warm fuzzy story. And those three children, poor things. Wait, that’s a lie. There aren’t three children in the house. There is a 13 year old son and two 20-something grown adult nephews who obviously couldn’t be bothered to clean the apartment with bleach or abide with the quarantine. Just think what that nice house in the gated community will look like in a couple weeks.

What is the point of this puff piece?

PROPAGANDA for 50% of the population....WOMEN.

We are supposed to think how romantic and then forgive him and move on in their minds.

The problem is that we have children, grandchildren and great grandchildren and are the ones forcing the menfolk out the door with pitchforks.

This will work on women without children and medium to lower level IQs and maybe gay men, but it will work on some.

Well, isn’t that special. Such a warm fuzzy. And the 3 little children... uh, wait, that’s a lie. There is only one child and he’s 13. The other two people living there are her 20-something grown adult nephews who couldn’t be bothered to clean up the apartment.

Did you see the CNN interview with the widow of Patrick Stewart (the Ebola guy who urniated on the nurses)? Of course, it was the usual wonderful guy and aspiring rapper hooey. The zinger was when Robin Meade (?) asked her if she had been in contact with LouisA and had her in her heart yada, yada. Mrs. Stewart sort of paused until Meade mentioned Dallas so Stewart would know who the heck she was talking about. Then Stewart went into a song and dance about talking to LouisA and sending her her support, blah, blah, blah. Total steaming manure. Neither one knew the Dallas woman’s name.

Is the thinking there will be less complaints about workers from a gated community going to work than workers from an apartment complex? Threats against the woman and youth involved, if true, are deplorable, but it did take officers stationed outside the apartment 24/7 to enforce isolation, so they’re not completely blameless in drawing complaints. And I’ve yet to see a ‘gated’ community wall that could contain a determined person if containment is the objective here. Hopefully this will be over in 14 days or thereabouts.

Last I heard was at her house somewhere in the Richardson school district. RISD is a suburb of Dallas.

This story is 100% BS. Mr. Duncan had prolonged and direct contact with a late-stage Ebola victim 4 days before traveling to the US. That means contact with blood, vomit, etc. from the victim.
