2% can't be determined...why? Because the patient can't be connected to a specific exposure HereSince1628 Oct 2014 #47
The unknown is scary stuff. How can new Ebola cases be stopped in the 2%? In_The_Wind Oct 2014 #51
Really, that 2% may not be different than any others... HereSince1628 Oct 2014 #52
That explanation sounds a whole lot better than simply Unknown. In_The_Wind Oct 2014 #53
No kidding...wtf? RiffRandell Oct 2014 #8

It's mind boggling... deutsey Oct 2014 #41
Closing the barn doors after the horse is already gone? LisaL Oct 2014 #9
There are two showing symptoms, and they are each isolated. morningfog Oct 2014 #21
One of those two flew to another state just before showing in the hospital with symptoms. LisaL Oct 2014 #23
And she was not infectious at that time. No one was infected by that travel. morningfog Oct 2014 #24
There you are, making statements you can not possibly have any evidence for. LisaL Oct 2014 #25
There you are sowing idiotic fear. You think you would have learned by now. morningfog Oct 2014 #27
Aren't you the one who claimed nobody got infected by Mr. Duncan? LisaL Oct 2014 #28
Am I wrong or are they have 4 others on a real tight watch boston bean Oct 2014 #49
That is not consistent with the information from the CDC. Ms. Toad Oct 2014 #46

Add OH to that list. LisaL Oct 2014 #18
LOL. morningfog Oct 2014 #26
You are clueless. LisaL Oct 2014 #31
I just heard that. Unbelieveable. RiffRandell Oct 2014 #32
For known contacts of Ebola patients, she shouldn't have been flying at all. LisaL Oct 2014 #34
Oh, I agree. RiffRandell Oct 2014 #35
And I promise you, no one on that plane was infected by her. morningfog Oct 2014 #38
You can not possibly promise me something that you haven't got a faintest clue about. LisaL Oct 2014 #40
I absolutely assure you. morningfog Oct 2014 #42
Your assurances are worth nothing to me. LisaL Oct 2014 #43
I guarantee it. morningfog Oct 2014 #44
It is unlikely that anyone was infected, Ms. Toad Oct 2014 #50
She shouldn't have been flying at all, while she was being monitored as Mr. Duncan's contact. LisaL Oct 2014 #55
I agree completely. Ms. Toad Oct 2014 #57
She was already symptomatic. LisaL Oct 2014 #61
I think Emory is one of the 4 units in the states that are equipped for this severe a problem. jwirr Oct 2014 #12
There's one here in Maryland. I believe that it is Bethesda Naval Hospital, which is literally amandabeech Oct 2014 #36
It's about time they started doing this. Not all hospitals are equal.... Little Star Oct 2014 #14
Emory, Nebraska somewhere, and two others have the biosafety units set up for kestrel91316 Oct 2014 #15
