Ebola Strikes Again: Second Person Suspected Of Ebola Virus Under Watch, Dallas TX

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 

By Josey Wales

 

CDC and Texas Health officials are closely monitoring a possible second Ebola patient who had close contact with the first Ebola patient to be diagnosed in the U.S., the director of Dallas County’s health department said Wednesday.

 

Everyone who had been in close contact with the diagnosed patient are being monitored as a precaution, said Zachary Thompson, director of Dallas County Health and Human Services.

 

“Let me be real frank to the Dallas County residents: The fact that we have one confirmed case, there may be another case that is a close associate with this particular patient,” he said. “So this is real. There should be a concern, but it’s contained to the specific family members and close friends at this moment.”

 

 

The director continued to assure residents that the public isn’t at risk because health officials have the virus contained. Does this reassurance make you feel secure?
 

Ebola symptoms can include fever, muscle pain, vomiting and bleeding and can appear as long as 21 days after exposure to the virus. The disease is not contagious until symptoms begin, and it takes close contact with bodily fluids to spread.

 

Texas Gov. Rick Perry and the state’s health director, David Lakey, will have a noon CT press conference at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital here to address the diagnosis.

 

Chris Greene asks some common sense questions about the Ebola virus striking Texas. Many people echo the same questions.

 

 

How many more people could be infected?

      Have you ever heard of a form of Ebola called Reston Virginia ? Check it our on Wikipedia and elsewhere.
      There is much we are NOT being told !

      Well,he’s succeeded in getting it here and not just that, Obama has gotten his revenge on Texas.

        The clown on that site claims its all about money.

        Stop listening to any idiot who honestly can utter such a stupid idea.

        Its about death and control. It always has been.

        To say that the powers that be need or even desire to collect paper fiat at this time, in itself is MORONIC.

        What is this man going to do when his mother dies of Ebola? Say that its fake??? All because he wont admit the intentions are really about death?

          >The clown on that site claims its all about money.

          yes. what an absurd belief. like deep throat told woodward and bernstein: “follow the pandemic.”

          >Stop listening to any idiot who honestly can utter such a stupid idea.

          “pay no attention to the man behind that curtain!”

          >Its about death and control. It always has been.

          i absolutely agree!! and fear and panic has an AWFUL effect on your health, mindset, and even your behavior – and it has CLEARLY altered the behavior of all those who were adamantly anti-vaccine, who are now thinking maybe it’ll be a good idea to trot on down to Rite-Aid and get their ebola vaccine the second Tekmira gets approval – which will be expedited. i’m sure they’ll give it out FOR FREE, too! you know… because it’s certainly NOT about MONEY! and control…. CONTROL, you say?? go take a gander at the new Executive Orders, which, by the way, don’t even REQUIRE a bona-fide ebola outbreak to start implementing! control, indeed!!!!!

          >To say that the powers that be need or even desire to collect paper fiat at this time, in itself is MORONIC.

          one might wonder why they keep on doing just that, then.

          >What is this man going to do when his mother dies of Ebola?

          (he said, speaking of things he knows – with absolute certainty – will come to pass)

          >Say that its fake???

          yes, of course! he’s obviously saying that ebola doesn’t exist…. AT ALL!

          /sarcasm

      Do not buy into this trumped up emergency made by the US and Bill Gates.
      They have the rights to the patent on it since 2009. I wonder why that would be?
      Anyone concerned with this, just take vitamin C. It kills the virus.

      I would imagine we will have ALOT of Ebola patients. After all we brought our missionary doctors who contracted it there back here and cured them. CURED them. Had they stayed there…they would have died. What message did that send?
      So I would not be surprised if every person who thinks they contract it jump on the first plane and head for the United States.

      I have some information everyone should know. And then some questions everyone should keep in mind on this subject.

      First. The patient (Mr. Duncan) is a Liberian national. Now, does than mean that he has lived here in the states for years and is applying for citizenship? Does he live and work here Or was he visiting? And most importantly…. Does he have health insurance here?

      Second Texas is HOT this time of year and this man was walking around with symptoms (infectious) for approximately six days.

      You should be AWARE that EBOLA CAN be spread through SWEAT!

      Also…..This is where my gripe about our healthcare system comes into play. “If you don’t have MONEY or INSURANCE you don’t get treatment.”

      Well…in this case….it sent an infectious EBOLA patient into the community. PAY over PRUDENCE may have just started an epidemic…..As I said…it’s HOT in Texas and ebola can be spread by sweat. That man was infectious and loose in the community for six days……

      Go TEXAS!
