Second Ebola-stricken nurse Amber Vinson, 29, will be airlifted to Atlanta
UK Daily Mail ^ | 15 OCT 14 | Nick Fagee

... the nurse had traveled on Frontier Airlines flight 1143 from Cleveland, Ohio to Dallas-Fort Worth, the day before she was diagnosed, after spending five days in her home state to plan her wedding.

Despite the fact Miss Vinson did not exhibit symptoms on the plane, the CDC was asking all 132 passengers who had traveled on the plane to get in touch as an extreme precaution.

This is the fault of the Senate who is suppose to approve appointees based on their qualifications. But old Harry Balls Reed just rubber stamped every affirmative action nominee Obama made

Do we know if she is black yet? Traveling to Cleveland can be a clue as according to Wikipedia, in 2010 Cleveland was 53.5% black, and 37.3% white, 10% hispanic and 1.8% Asian.

The first set of contacts of the index patient was 46 or so. Then on Friday night, they told us about Ms. Pham, who was not on the watch list. This nurse may have been on the second set of health workers, who were not, stupidly, told to monitor themselves. If so, she was already on her way to Cleveland.

The big question is, what were the instructions were given to both sets of contacts? Where they told to self-quarantine and that is to shelter in place? Or were they told, just to take their temperature twice a day? Or just take their temperature if they felt hot?

I think one of the characteristics not mention about Ebola victims, other than convulsing, thrashing wildly, and peeing and puking on others, some doing it seemingly viciously, is that they are wont to put loved ones in danger.

Exhibit Duncan who slept in the same bed with his fiance and in the same house with her children.

Nancy Silverman who potentially could have spread it to the soup gourmandes at her favorite high end comfort food joint.

And Nurse Vinson who went to visit family and pre-wedding well-wishers. Did she tell them all about her experiences with the index patient or was she mum?

As far as I know nurse Pham called in sick for a few days before she took the temperature that led her to the emergency room-—where, if memory serves, she read on her iphone that she had Ebola. They did not tell her directly first. How is that for clear communication!

I heard that you were feeling ill, headache fever and a chill
I came to help restore your pluck...

Even this nurse probably has enough sense not to get on an airplane.

ANd once she had that fever her skin was sloughing off and those traces of skin all had Ebola on it. Not good for those in contact with her at that time that were unprotective.

Actually she was in Akron planning her wedding. She’s a local gal from there, graduated from Kent State and likely wound up in TX because that’s where the jobs are.

God Bless the doctors and nurses who were willing to take care of Mr. Duncan. (I don’t think that I could have done it. My trust in the the hospital knowing I wasn’t trained for this, would had me alarmed). However, if someone is being monitored for an infectious disease, from a working environment, I would Not go out in the public, board a plane at different stops until enough days had passed to where I knew I did not have the virus. This is really turning out bad due to human errors, lack of preparedness, lack of communication and not having the truth from the CDC. The CCD director is only acting from Valerie Jarret and company which should be a norm - by communication but not with this unethical government.

You have medical professionals (this nurse, Snyderman) who should understand not only the seriousness of the disease, but also how to properly isolate themselves, and yet even with this knowledge, they willingly put people in danger.

“However, according to Flight-tracker, the plane used for Frontier 1143 was used for five additional flights on Tuesday before it was removed from service.
Those flights include:

a return flight to Cleveland,
Cleveland to Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport (FLL),
FLL to Cleveland, Cleveland to Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), and
ATL to Cleveland.

THAT little tidbit did NOT SHOW UP in WaPo, AP, Reuters, or any other of the Obola-backing Leftist media! “

Someone referenced she was likely an affirmative action hire and that usually implies they are black. That’s why. Good enough for you?

What ever happened to the NBC cameraman? He fell off the media’s radar completely.
