Four different schools, excellent news! /s
I am assuming exposed from the same source, but they are in 4 different districts? Seriously?
So can we assume that if a child got the virus on there skin or cloths and then didn’t wash it off before they made contact with someone else that they could transmit the virus without first coming down with symptoms?
There are no words that I can post here that describe what I’m thinking.
Ebola patient #1 in America is black, an immigrant(?) and probably muslim.
Did not read the article Jim. Am asking for a favor if someone read the article. Two elementary schools are involved from snip or were attended by at a minimum of two children. Do we know why at a minimum two different children were spread out to two different elementary schools?
4 schools plus the Ivy Apartments in Plano, TX.
Not good.
Really, really close to my mom.
The guy says he’s from Liberia, goes to the emergency room and tells them he is from a country with known Ebola cases, they send him home to an apartment complex with close neighbors. That does NOT increase my faith in the “system” they have in place to “protect the citizens”.
DISD ??
On another thread, they were saying that he only had contact with 12-18 people.
B.... S.
When he went to the hospital on the 27th, there is no darn way that there were only a handful of people in the waiting room. And what about the staff? You’re going to come in contact with registration, the triage nurse, an ER nurse, a doctor, and a cleaner... minimum.
That’s 5 individuals right there. Plus the people in the waiting room. And if he used the bathroom or drinking fountain, there are hours more to expose people even after he left. (moist environment)
Plus the five kids. Their families.
There is NO WAY that he only had contact with 12-18 human beings.

Eeeee-bolllll-aaaaaa ping!
Bring Out Your Dead
We’re gonna need 
a bigger cart!
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
