Texas Ebola patient’s partner and 3 family members quarantined
CNN ^ | October 2, 2014

(CNN) — The partner of Ebola patient Thomas Duncan is quarantined in her Dallas apartment where Duncan became sick with the virus after his trip to Liberia, the woman told CNN’s Anderson Cooper.

The woman, who asked to be identified only by her first name, Louise, is quarantined with one of her children under 13 and two nephews in their 20s because they were in apartment when Duncan became ill, Cooper said.

Duncan, a 42-year-old Liberian citizen, is now hospitalized in Dallas.

But Louise remains in her apartment, and she’s worried, not knowing what to do and waiting on federal health officials, Cooper said.

“She doesn’t know how she’s going to get food into the apartment. She was told she said maybe the Red Cross would come by. She’s still waiting for that,” Cooper said.

“Some health officials brought sandwiches last night, but she hasn’t had anything today,” Cooper said Thursday. “She’s certainly kind of at loose ends and is obviously extremely worried.”

Cooper’s interview with Louise will air Thursday evening on CNN’s “AC360˚.”

Now would be a good time to stock up on a couple weeks worth of survival food.

It may be the fact that she comes from a country with no refrigeration and you shop for the food each day.

The government needs to provide food or they will venture out for food rather than starve.

-Their brain cavity is 15% smaller than whites

Shop for food? I thought this sh*t all started because some kid ate a fruit bat out in the bush. Then we have CDC shrieking all is well, all is well, we have better doctors, hospitals, healthcare, food, cleanliness so all will be fine here in US. Meanwhile this stupid boob hasn’t tried to clean everything in her subsidized apartment(does she not have a dollar store gallon of bleach) meanwhile she sits on infected sheets for interview with Anderson Cooper 69 while waiting for someone to bring her a sammich. Putin and Amadinejad are laughing their asses off at how stupid America is.

Contrary to what liberals may think, Dallas, TX is indeed in the USA and has refrigerators and other modern conveniences.

She’s probably on EBT and goes to the local quickie mart buffet or takie outie place each day for her meals.

With what force will they be willing to enforce a quarantine? If not deadly, then it is not going to work. Really: How many Americans would you shoot to enforce a quarantine of Dallas if it got bad?

The political will to effect a sizeable quarantine does not exist. Therefore, it seems very likely to me that this bug is going to be a word-wide pandemic like The Black Death.

There isn’t enough nerve in a politician to do what is necessary to limit absolute quantities of death.

(Pending discovery of exactly how infectious this thing is in the modern West....)

It’s a little early yet and you are forgetting the millions of rounds of hollow points the different alphabet agencies purchased.

Seal up the house and put them all on the pancake diet. (They can just slide them under the door.)

What are they going to do once they kill off most of the producers, through the various means now in play?

The same thing they did in Africa when the blacks murdered, ran off or killed whiteys and took over all of the farms. When starvation sets in, they will riot and murder some more.

It's coming....right here in AmeriKa. Lock & load.

I grew up hearing those pithy sayings from my own relatives, how true they are, more than ever, and how applicable to the growing human parasite class in this country.

I miss my dad saying all those things. He died back in 2005. Sometimes I’m glad he didn’t live to see the disgrace in the White House now but still I miss him being here.

The political will is going to be forced on Obama, whether he likes it or not.

If you keep the population in place and make sure they have food and water, they’ll be ok. I’d say in this area that most of them are probably on welfare anyway, but if they aren’t, there has to be some way of compensating businesses or employed people. Just a basic FEMA claim.

Also, we’re lucky it’s in North Texas and not a tropical area. The virus can’t survive low temperatures and seems to favor humidity, so North Texas is not a good place for it.

If they stop it NOW, they can do it. The question is how long they will drag their politically correct heels.

I’m afraid that we’ll see a kind of “zombie” scenario first, with the “zombies” gathering in mobs to loot, steal, and kill before they starve anyway.
