2nd Possible Ebola Case In Dallas! Panic Ripples Through Texas As Parents Pull Children From Schools

by Pete Santilli, The Pete Santilli Show & The Guerilla Media Network

There’s no doubt that the Ebola pandemic is a very serious and deadly prospect for the entire world.  Regradless of what conspircy theorists and investigative journalists have uncovered as to who owns the Ebola virus and vaccines, Ebola will cause millions of deaths in a short period of time.

There is a reported 2nd Ebola victim in the Dallas area as reported by Texas health officials on USA Today.  Questions posed to the official produced frank answers relating to the number of infected individuals, as well as the response by parents after reports that patients had contact with school children.

USA TODAY: Officials: Second person being monitored for Ebola 

 

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

All who have been in close contact with the man officially diagnosed are being monitored as a precaution, Zachary Thompson, director of Dallas County Health and Human Services, said in a morning interview with WFAA-TV, Dallas-Fort Worth.

“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.”

STAR-TELEGRAM: Dallas parents fearing Ebola remove children from school

 

Parents on Wednesday were removing their children from a Dallas school where a student may have had contact with the Ebola patient diagnosed Tuesday.

A letter to parents of children at L.L. Hotchkiss Elementary School, 6929 Town North Drive, says in part:

“This morning, we were made aware that one of our students may have had contact with an individual who was recently diagnosed with the Ebola virus. This student is currently not showing any symptoms and is under close observation by the Dallas County Health and Human Services Department. As a precautionary measure, the student has been advised to stay home from school. Since this student is not presenting any symptoms, there is nothing to suggest that the disease was spread to others, including students and staff.” 

At a news conference at noon Wednesday, Dallas Independent School District Superintendent Mike Miles said students attending four different Dallas Independent School District schools possibly have been exposed to the Ebola virus.

He said the district was informed the five students were in contact with the Ebola patient over the weekend. They have been in school since, but are now at home and likely will be kept there for 21 days.

Dallas County is working with the Centers for Disease Control to have “boots on the ground” to monitor those who might have been exposed, officials said.
