CBS News Medical Correspondent Dr. John LaPook reports that Vinson called the CDC several times before boarding the plane concerned about her fever and was told she was OK to board.

Boarding the plane to "spread the wealth". Note the 0bamabot with the clipboard- and absolutely no protective clothing!

I believe that this outbreak was done on purpose.

They want Ebola to spread.

I hope the nurse is lying otherwise CDC could be considered incompetent.

This is a ship which sailed a few days ago (at least at the top level).

The “Fever” guideline from CDC was 101.5 to be “symptomatic”
It has been changed to 100.4 to be “symptomatic”

Anything under 100.4 and you were good to go.

Now CDC is saying at 99.5 she should not have flown but told her earlier it was OK.

I guess they will update their guidelines to 99.5 soon so if you have been treating ebola patients and you have a fever of 99.4 you are good to go.

We live in an analog world with digital decision makers.

We just have to inform Ebola of CDC rules.

You can pretty much guarantee that any political appointee in a Rat administration is incompetent at the job assigned and only got the job because of political connections.

We should announce that the CDC and the Democrats are a health hazard worse than terrorists, which they really are.

It is on Drudge, but he missed the paragraph. He uses an unassuming title: “Knowingly Traveled with “Low-Grade Fever”........

Yeah, I read articles very carefully, usually,

It proves the government wants it to spread. Remember, NOTHING is out of the question with Obama.

A black nurse told my wife today that she believes it’s part of Agenda 21. I bout nearly fell over.

I’ll second putting it into breaking—this is either treason or gross stupidity of the first order or both if the nurse isn’t lying. I’d assumed that she was thoughtless, but I freely admit that this alternative scenario seems very plausible.

Also from the story at the link:

However, according to Flighttracker, the plane was used for five additional flights on Tuesday before it was removed from service. Those flights include a return flight to Cleveland, Cleveland to Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport (FLL), FLL to Cleveland, Cleveland to Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), and ATL to Cleveland.

Apparently the CDC has zero knowledge of how airlines work. Zero being the operative word.

Well Frieden was Bloomberg’s anti-smoking czar.

Obola’s CDC at work. Is there any reason the government is not trustworthy?

YES! And her name is DEATH and Hell is her children. People Obola wants you dead from Ebola. He will only be able to get the world population down to 500 million by killing you. Agenda 21 is not a joke it’s real.

According to the “experts” (former perts), you have to be burning up and bleeding out before you are considered “contagious”.

This morning I wanted this woman’s head on a platter for getting on board this plane, now we know that she was told it was A OK to get on board a plane while experiencing a low grade fever..99.5 is low grade but it means something is cooking inside of you. Trust me, Ive had low grade fevers before, even though its considered “Low grade” still that person can spread their germs..then the CDC has the nerve to go on TV and say “This woman should have never flown” hey CDC, YOU TOLD HER IT WAS OK..I was watching CNN a few minutes ago and Erin Burnett was reporting that a man who was on board that flight had called the CDC because he is scared he doesn’t know what he has to look for, after being on hold for forever..he was told “Just monitor yourself for 21 days, if you have fever go to the hospital” are they serious..so this poor man has to worry for the next 21 days that he might have something in his body that will kill him

I agree. For the life of me, I cannot understand why you would not want to ban commercial flights in and out of the Hot Zone. The Obola Administration keeps saying you wouldn't be able to get aid to the Hot Zone. WTF, have they not heard of “charter” flights? All commercial flights should be banned. Only flights (ships for that matter) with personnel and goods should be allowed in.

I really don't get it.
