The materials (sheets, clothes, mattress, etc.) of the affected Ebola
patient in Dallas are being stored in a truck because they ran into a
problem getting a DOT permit to transport them to an appropriate
disposal area.

I think they might as well have just shot that woman. They locked her
up in the apartment with all of that contaminated material.

They should have evacuated the whole building, took all of those
people to a quarantine facility and prepared to treat them.(at least
any who had direct contact with the victim or his stuff)

I agree this is a controllable disease but they need to control it.
The more victims we have, the better chance the virus has to mutate to
something that is not as easy to control. At a certain point, having
it get loose in Americans may be worse, We have a lot of antibodies in
our system that could make a surviving virus much stronger.
As cruel as it sounds, the natural way viruses have been controlled in
places like Africa is by killing all the hosts. When the last host
dies, the virus dies. Travel has made that an untenable option.



Putting all the people in the building in a quarantine facility wasn't
an option. Hell, moving the family members out of the single apartment
wasn't an option initially. No quarantine facility existed.

An anonymous good Samaritan donated the use of an empty house they owned
to move the family members into yesterday afternoon.

Riichard. It's good to see individuals volunteering to hands-on help those in need, while govt agencies play with themselves

At this point they are most likely infected after living in that petri
dish and they should be in treatment, not house arrest.



Hard to tell. Just have to wait and see. Based on what little I know
about this virus, they would have to come in direct contact with bodily
fluids of someone who was displaying symptoms. Just being in a room
with an infected person apparently won't spread the virus.

The county judge (Jenkins) and two women entered the apartment to talk
to the victim's family without wearing any gloves, masks or protection.
Since the family members are not sick, it apparently is safe to do so,
according to all the experts. I suspect it was done to help quell some
of the fear and hysteria in some of the public.

Not to worry...Rick Perry will find the cure.

The problem is, if you look at what the Govt has said, and compare them
to the facts on the ground.. they haven't gotten much of this right so
far, or they are lying directly which of course with this admin. is not
only possible, but probable too....
