Coming Attractions Bridal and Formal, Inc., had to shut down for three weeks after Vinson visited with a low-grade fever days before checking into the hospital with Ebola. Vinson is now asking for nearly $500 from the store so her bridesmaids can purchase dresses elsewhere to avoid 'public scrutiny,' according to a letter from attorney Stephen Malouf.

The Ebola survivor who visited an Ohio bridal store with a low-grade fever and forced the shop to temporarily shut down is asking for a refund.

Amber Vinson, now Ebola-free, is requesting nearly $500 from Coming Attractions Bridal and Formal, Inc., to the shock of its owner, according to newsnet5.com.

"I don't know what she thinks about our business," store owner Anna Younker said. "Does she think she's hurt it enough?"

Coming Attractions had to shut down for three weeks after Vinson came to the Akron, Ohio store the weekend before checking into the hospital with Ebola, Younker said.

Vinson, a Dallas nurse, was the second person to contract Ebola on American soil. She was not contagious at the time of her visit with a low-grade fever, according to the CDC.

The refund, a total of $479.89, would allow Vinson's bridal party to purchase dresses elsewhere, according to a letter from her attorney. She requested $107 back for two bridesmaids and $132.92 for two others who bought or put down deposits on dresses there.

One of the obvious side effects of ebola survivors are the tendencies to become self-centered and suffer feelings of arrogance and indignancy.

Almost as good as the Texas pit bull owner who sued the owners of the dog her pit bull gored to death.

I certainly hope that the store owners remember how to say “GO TO HELL”

Sue her for knowingly going into the store in a condition that would cause them to close down and lose 3 weeks worth of business.
