Dallas County law enforcement officers are looking for a man who reportedly rode in the Dallas Fire-Rescue ambulance that had carried a man stricken with Ebola to Texas Health Presbyterian hospital.

County Judge Clay Jenkins said Dallas police and county sheriff’s deputies are trying to find the man, who reports have suggested is homeless.

Authorities have not released the man’s name.

“We are working to locate the individual and get him to a comfortable, compassionate place where we can monitor him and care for his every need for the full incubation period,” Jenkins said in an emailed statement. “I want to emphasize that he is a low risk individual and we are doing this out of precautionary measures.”

I pull up this thread as the CDC chief is on tv saying there’s “no doubt Ebola will be stopped in the U.S.”

These morons are living in a pipe dream or something. Can’t figure out what it is.

Well, these guys are like the Keystone Cops. I don’t know how many more things they can screw up with the Ebola epidemic they are enabling by their poor processes.

Wait a minute! I thought they said that the ambulance was cleaned, and that the ambulance is cleaned after each use. The cleaning would have killed the Ebola virus.
Now they are looking for the the next patient who rode in the ambulance after Duncan?
I am getting serious concerns about Gov. Perry. He is not handling this situation well at all. He should be ( with assistance of MDs who are not bureaucrats) in control of this. I see nothing from him.
Perry is looking to be just as incompetent as Obama.

How convenient that the next passenger in the ambulance is an unregistered homeless person.

Hollywood would be unable to write a better script for a conspiracy movie about an insane President who started an ebola epidemic with just two people.

So, once Obola patients start populating hospitals, I wonder how long it will be before no one goes to hospitals at all, and then they shut down...

What a great way for a homeless person to earn some extra cash.

Plane loads of ebola carriers are coming - - seeking free first-class medical care in the United States.

They're streaming in from Africa... Why worry about one homeless carrier?

The intersections by Northpark are notorious for having homeless begging on the corners. Just drove by there 20 minutes ago.

I saw a fellow who left austin tx and took ambulances rides all the way to Wy in his quest to get to ND.

if you see any video of him, he looks/acts similar to someone who recently escaped an institution.

Short bus.

He just sounds like your standard garden variety idiot to me. Every time I see him on TV he’s saying something stupid. I’m sure he thinks he is being all “compassionate” but he just sounds like a bleeding heart politician.

They want to quarantine this bum whom they say is low-risk. There’s no travel restrictions on people coming out areas swept by the epidemic., they must consider those travelers “no-risk”.
