“Reports are that he was asymptomatic on the flight home.

Not sure if I believe that one.”

Most travelers do anything they can to get back to the US when they fall ill on a trip. You can bet if he felt bad, he did everything he could to hide it.

To quote Ann Coulter: The very first "risk factor" listed by the Mayo Clinic for Ebola -- an incurable disease with a 90 percent fatality rate -- is: "Travel to Africa."

Why would anyone go into that hot zone now?

Buy protective masks and gloves. And duct tape (for windows and doors). Just in case...

This pisses me off. Ebola got to our shores BEFORE it got to Europe with ALL their connections to Africa.

Our Government is really effing everything up.

Presbyterian Hospital, just east of US 75 on Walnut Hill Ln

What used to be a decent area, now proximately infested with Sec. 8 housing and the trash that comes with it

If he went through DFW good luck tracing contact, there are exposed people scattered all over the country by now.

“With what we’ve seen in the media and how deadly the Ebola virus is, it is a concern,” he said.


But not enough to name the flights the patient took to find the potentially infected, or the man’s workplace, school his kids go to, etc.

Explain

In the wild, naturally occurring...as opposed to a patient brought to the us or artificially infected.

Good thing we didn’t have these mods on duty the mornings of September 11, 2001 or February 1, 2003. Some classic threads would have gotten canned.
