I heard on the news this morning that the patient had been in contact with children, probably family members he’s visiting. Are these kids in school? Has the school been notified?
They rely on this guy telling the truth. How do we know he hasn’t been in contact with numerous other people? Or that he wasn’t starting to feel sick on the flight? People lie about such things all the time.
And if Ebola is so “hard to catch” why do the doctors double up on precautions? I recommend the First Family set an example and visit the patient to calm the public’s concerns.
There's the real disconnect. The whole time the CDC has been saying Ebola is "hard to catch", the doctors and nurses who have survived so far have been describing Ebola as "highly contagious".
The CDC and the WHO have been sleeping on guard duty and are trying to get the rest of us to believe they've been alert.
