Good way to overload the system (and get free health care) Tell them ‘a friend of a friend’ went to Africa, now you have a headache.

Considering that it takes about 50 times as much to treat one person suspected of Ebola, this could get out of control quickly (even WITHOUT the actual disease)

If I were CDC/the administration, I’d be urging people to get their flu shots to reduce the number of Ebola scares. I might get one myself this year (I skipped last year because I have modest adverse reactions to the shot).

Little help here, please -

‘The person told hospital staff that they has casual contact with a person’

Must be a typo.

[Mrs. P]

“Baptist Health says they are exercising caution and using CDC protocols.”

Well, I’m going to sleep well tonight, knowing that.

Here's the problem: there are many illnesses that have initial symptoms very much like Ebola.

As such, we need a clear, standardized step on recognizing the true symptoms of Ebola, because we're jumping to conclusions for all the wrong reasons.

If I knew anybody who had been in West Africa recently, I’d run the other way and not stop to apologize.

[PoloSec]

I find the following comment curious:

"The person told hospital staff that they has casual contact with a person who travelled to West Africa."

Person not he or she, They...who are they, is there more than one, is this just an oversight and nothing to be suspicious and/or curious about.

Good grief! What idiot wrote this? Six sentences and only one is without an grammatical error.

And what is it with this trend of not putting sentences in paragraphs?

[SWAMPSNIPER]

They are saying NOT EBOLA on this one Folks, but stay tuned, could be some hanging chads involved.
