Complete Headline: Ebola air scare in the US: Infected nurse flew on Frontier Airlines HOURS she was hospitalized ...and now the CDC trying to track down all 132 passengers aboard her plane
Amber Jay Vinson, the second nurse to be diagnosed with Ebola, was on a flight from Cleveland, Ohio, to Dallas just hours before she was hospitalized with the deadly disease.
Now, the Centers for Disease Control are trying to track down all 132 passengers who were aboard Frontier Airlines Flight 1143 on Monday with Ms Vinson over fears they could all have been exposed to the virus.
Everyone who was on board the plane is asked to call 1-800-CDC-INFO (1-800-232-4636) so that they can be interviewed by CDC doctors to determine who is at risk for possible exposure to Ebola.
Ms Vinson, 29, was one of the 76 medical workers from Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital who treated Thomas Eric Duncan, the Ebola 'patient zero,' and was told she was at risk for exposure to the disease.

CDC director Dr Tom Frieden said on Wednesday that Miss Vinson should not have traveled on a commercial airline while self-monitoring for Ebola symptoms.
(No shart, Sherlock!)
#FireFrieden NOW!!!
I read earlier that she was not one of that group of 76. The articles say that she was involved in Duncan’s care, but the fact that she wasn’t part of that group indicates that she didn’t have direct contact with him. It’s not clear to me exactly what her involvement was, but it would be interesting - to say the least - if she got the disease without having direct contact with him.
Not to worry, she wiped down the airplane sink and toilet with a paper towel just like the airline sign asked
WTF!!!!
um.. I think I might have Ebola... I think i’ll take a trip around the US by plane!!!!
WTF!!!!
That can not be repeated enough!
This bastard is as dumb as Obama!!
Oh heres some GREAT news:
CNN BREAKING 2nd #ebola patient had temperature of 99.5 when she flew from Cleveland to Dallas on Monday -CDC

I also heard someone complain that this 26 year old nurse was inexperienced and that hospital officials were at fault, for having allegedly inexperienced personnel caring for an Ebola patient.
Can’t wait for the lawsuit and if they make these charges in a court of law.
WHO: Ebola Incubation Period 42 Days NOT 21 - TheCount.com

WHO has released a report contradicting U.S. officials assessment of the Ebola incubation period.. In the WHO’s Ebola situation assessment newsletter
I guess the new protocols are developing as we speak.
I just heard on both Fox News and CNN..this woman HAD A FEVER before she went on the plane back to Texas, she had 99.5..so she already KNEW she had a fever before boarding the flight and she flew anyway..that is why the CDC wants to contact these passengers, not just because hey they were on a flight with this woman, its because SHE HAD A FEVER..those people are royally screwed
Just wow...double the time period.
Heard on Fox she had a low grade fever (99.5)
This is Amber the second nurse with Ebola
Yep, she boarded a flight with a fever, oh goodie goodie gumdrops..the dailymail has a photo of her I just posted it, if Obama had a female nurse running around with Ebola for a sister...
Its called “social distancing” and was utilized during the Spanish Flu pandemic. Would not be surprised if he pulled this out and used it.
Did you read the part about her family, that was obviously exposed, then flying down to be with her?
How many people were on THAT flight with her family?
Nutjobs. All.
I want to know if the 99.5F was before or after she may have taken a fever reducer...
Typhoid Barbie flew to Cleveland to prepare for her wedding, according to director of Cleveland public health department?
I see now why she is being transferred to Emory. /s
