The sister of the first Ebola patient diagnosed in the United States says he told relatives he notified officials the first time he went to the hospital that he was visiting from Liberia.
Mai Wureh says her brother, Thomas Eric Duncan, went to a Dallas emergency room on Friday and they sent him home with antibiotics.

In a news conference early Wednesday afternoon, Dallas ISD superintendent Mike Miles revealed that five children from four district schools were possibly exposed to the virus.
Miles identified the schools as:
Conrad High School Tasby Middle School Hotchkiss Elementary School Dan D. Rogers Elementary
The patient who was diagnosed with the Ebola virus was staying at a northeast Dallas apartment complex, according to a Dallas police spokesman.
Lt. Joel Lavender confirmed the patient was transported from the Ivy Apartments to Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas on September 28.

Lake Highlands is still pretty nice. That’s where my mom lives. They are tearing down the older homes and building huge homes.
However, right by nice areas they have low income housing that causes all sorts of problems. I don’t know when they were converted to low income housing. They were nice when I grew up there. They’ve torn down some of the complexes, but not enough.
Fair Oaks Blvd. is full of scary low income housing.
Hard to believe how much Presbyterian screwed up. I thought it was supposed to be a decent hospital still.
========================================
Infecting innocent children and then using them to execute a terror attack for the purpose of mass murder...hmmmm.
What do YOU think Jesus would ... oh never mind. You MUST be pretty angry to even think of that one.
Don't fear the Reaper?
Nope.
I wonder if people are ever going to become outraged.
The millennial children, women, blacks and browns have elected their messiah and he is going to send us all to hell. I hope they are happy but I also hope they are the first to reap the consequences of their stupid decisions. Given the Section 8 housing this non-citizen immigration status unknown is living in, that wish will probably come true.
We are now in the hands of incompetents and PC run amok. We work and pay for the gimmedats to torment and kill us and empower them with the vote to take even from us at the hands of white hating, corrupt communists.
We can’t possibly prepare for the worst when it has happened.
My tag line. I’m pissed and I have been pissed for years. I’m also a stoic. I also don’t give a damn about what anyone thinks about what I have to say or think anymore.
Not unlikely
Elementary, middle and high school plus a variant of one or another - charter, magnet, special ed, etc.
Also with school choice/lotteries involved you get that sort of thing - one kid got mamas preferred school the other didn’t.
Agreed.
Four different schools, not districts. One high school, one middle school, and two elementary schools.
4 different schools. A high school, middle school, and two grade schools. The five children could be all in the family. Two grade schools might mean one of their younger kids as special needs, or perhaps a friend was at the house playing, etc.
Just goes to show how many interactions we all have with people over a wide variety of areas.
In Liberia I could imagine all of the kids would go to one small school in their village, and never going more than 6 blocks away from their home in a month.
I wonder if the father or mother in Dallas worked - and where?
Excellent deduction Watson! I was wrongfully assuming they were all the same age!
Depends on the borders for the elementary schools. Also depends on parents and where they want their kids to go. For my first two years of school, my parents moved three times. Each time, they left me in the school I started in, and didn't move me until the next school year. The same thing happens today. Parents want their kids to go to a certain school, so they send them there, regardless of address. Or, they could be across the street or just down the block and be in two separate districts.
Just got off the phone with my son, who is pretty far left. Today he sounded quite frustrated with Obama. He seems to be more disillusioned with Obama each time we speak, but he still blames Bush for everything. I wonder how long it will take him to grow up. He’s 28.
I believe you 100%.
One often sees that mix: putting low income very near the wealthy. I always thought it was giving the poor a chance to break in and steal sale-able stuff.
BTW, our "poor" are far better off than the "middle class" of third world sewers.

I THINK much of our nation's disordered thinking MIGHT have started, well, some of it at least, when SOME Protestant denominations decided that homosexual marriages were okey-dokey. THEN some homosexual-friendly ministers MARRIED those same-sex couples.
They were NOT marriages in the eyes of God, were they? They were SINFUL alliances.
Once that God-given COMMANDMENT (not "suggestion") fell to the wayside, that opened the door to let Satan in and discard other God-given COMMANDMENTS. I might be in error here.
In case you didn't already know, and you MIGHT, Satan means "adversary" in Hebrew.
DISD ??
Makes sense and my question is probably stupid.
in other news ... judges voted 2-1 to allow same day registration for voters in NC
I’m sorry for you, he may never grow up if he does not understand things better than that by now. I think Bush was foolish but at least I think he didn’t hate America and realized he was the President of all Americans. I can’t see daylight between most republicans and demorats now but I think I can at least recognize competence and someone who is American.
My son is 32 and he hates obongo. He is very rational, a deep thinker, unlike me he is slow to speak and almost invariably very sage in his remarks. If he ever fails to make it on his own I will have to go find him and bring him home to get him back on his feet because he is fiercely independent and self-reliant and thinks every one else should be the same way.
Not at all. I could understand the same complex and three different school-aged children affecting a high school, middle school and elementary school. But it is interesting that two different elementary schools are impacted.
What do you bet attendance rate is below 50% at all of them tomorrow.
