DALLAS Due to close contact with a patient diagnosed with the Ebola virus, a second person is under the close monitoring of health officials as a possible second patient, said the director of Dallas County's health department Wednesday morning in an interview with WFAA.
Zachary Thompson, the director of Dallas County Health and Human Services, says all those who've been in close contact with the diagnosed patient are being monitored as a precaution. However, Thompson pointed to one person in particular as a potential second case.
"Let me be real frank to the Dallas County residents, the fact that we have one confirmed case, there may be another case that is a close associate with this particular patient,"

The patient left Liberia on September 19 and arrived in Dallas to visit relatives the following day, said CDC director Tom Frieden. On September 26, he sought treatment at the hospital after becoming ill but was sent home with a prescription for antibiotics. Two days later, he was admitted with more critical symptoms, after requiring an ambulance ride to the hospital.
"I have no doubt that we'll stop this in its tracks in the U.S.," Frieden said. "But I also have no doubt that as long as the outbreak continues in Africa we need to be on our guard."
Local health officials say the patient was in contact with several children before he was hospitalized. Thompson says each of those children have been kept home and are under precautionary monitoring.

The three paramedics who transported the patient are temporarily off duty and among those under observation.

Hospital officials have acknowledged that the patients travel history wasnt fully communicated to doctors..
This is intolerable.

Hangs head.....
Each Obola infected person can transmit the disease to more than one person, thus an Obola plague is more accurately described as a geometric progression. Assuming a very conservative case of each Obola victim infecting merely three people we have:
1, 3, 9, 27, 81, 243, 729, 2187, 6561, ...........
Please remember that in a geometric progression, bad gets far worse vastly more rapidly.
Let's do the math in the above Obola hypothetical situation:
1. With an arithmetic progression, nine transmissions later, America must cope with 256 Obola cases.
2. With a geometric progression, America must cope with 6561 cases.
If each Obola patient in America infect only one other person, then we merely have to cope with 256 cases of Ebola. However, if each Obola patient infects three others, we have 25 times the number of Obola infected Americans.
Welcome to reality, where the diseased do spread their contagion until it reaches plague proportions in America.
The spread of AIDS could have been dealt with had the victims been tracked down and isolated for life, as was done with Leprosy. American citizens ceded power to the homosexual lobby and quarantine of AIDS patients was not done and now America has a huge population of AIDS infected citizens. Worse yet, the infected queers sometimes had sex with non-queers and the AIDS plague spread across America.
AIDS was spread into the non-queer population and innocent, non-queers were unknowingly infected with a fatal disease but - - - no AIDS infected person who spread their disease to another American, and did so without telling their unsuspecting victim, was ever tried for murder and executed.
Isn't “Queer Power” wonderful?
Isn't living during a Regime with a queer/bi President wonderful?
Remember, to contract AIDS, one had to decide to have sex with an AIDS infected person, share an AIDS infected druggies’ needle, etc. Exposure to AIDS was largely a matter of active choice. Oboloa is different.
Unlike AIDS, one can contract Obola by breathing, as was the case in the Reston Labs. Obola can also be contracted.by touching something an Obola case touched, It is not possible for the citizen to choose to avoid Obola exposure as was the case with AIDS.
Conclusions:
1. Quarantine, not “monitoring” or “observation” or “reporting” of any possible Obola infected people is essential.
2. Closing American borders to any persons from a nation with an Obola outbreak is essential.
3. Survival of the American Republic is unnecessarily being put at risk by the same medical Command/Control structure which allowed AIDS to become a plague when quarantine/isolation could have prevented it.
Very good analysis.
