Second Dallas Ebola Patient?

[depotoo]

I call this criminal negligence on everyone of them.......... No way to track who he met in the airport unless you are going to review hrs of film and them somehow try to ID them What about people in the plane are they notified and staying home.....especiaLLY THE PEOPLE HE SAT BY

They claim he had no symptoms then, thus no exposure has occurred.

Here's the thing..they make these ridiculous statements as if they are a sure thing.

They SAID ebola has to be transmitted by bodily fluids, and can't be airborne...but in reality, they don't really know, and in fact, ebola has been shown to transmit between SPECIES via AIRBORNE droplets. Most likely.

But then again, they just don't know.

They THINK that PROBABLY it can't be spread until someone is exhibiting symptoms...but then again, they aren't sure. And maybe the dude had symptoms but they just didn't catch them. Maybe he had a fever, but the thermometer was faulty, or he held it funky, or maybe he's the one case that didn't pop a fever but was still contagious.

They don't know. These are viruses, and they are viruses that they know very, very little about (because they are so fucking deadly and because they mutate so fast).

We knew we were only a plane flight away from this happening.

It also shows pre-screening before boarding a flight from these countries doesn't always bring out the truth from people.

Yeah who'd a thunk people fleeing a kill zone arent going to say whatever is necessary to get out.

Perhaps you misunderstand the term common sense in preventing the spread of a deadly disease. Perhaps you misunderstand the term INCOMPETENCE in our current Gov't.

That is expected from you. It's your normal standard. The Flag Bearer of Ignorance.

And for anyone to assume all people would be honest about exposure before boarding a flight out of there, is just nuts.

Did you read the link re his exposure? Unbelievable story and multiple deaths in his immediate neighborhood.

Idiot. We pay for government, and yes, we need it in certain situations. What we don't want is it intruding UNLESS we need it. Government is not an all or nothing thing, despite the tripe that comes from statist douchebags such as yourself.

The US government should have done what other rational countries have done. Stop travel from the affected areas. How long will it be before countries deny travel from the United States? Ebola is in two countries, Africa and the US.

If a state could prohibit planes from Africa landing, surely some at least would. But states don't have that power. Only the federal government has that power.

Some airlines have canceled flights going there.

Stop flights in and out of Texas immediately!
