The family of the first person to die of Ebola in the U.S. is upset with the patient’s medical care, and called his treatment "unfair." Thomas Eric Duncan, who is from Liberia, died Wednesday after being infected with the Ebola virus. He had been in isolation at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas, since his diagnosis on Sept. 28.Duncan’s nephew Joe Weeks told ABC News he felt Duncan had “unfair” medical treatment. Weeks suggested that Duncan did not get the same treatment being given to Ebola patient Ashoka Mukpo in a Nebraska hospital, although he did not detail that alleged difference.He said the family questioned why Duncan was not moved to Emory University Hospital, where two American health workers were successfully treated after becoming infected with Ebola in Liberia.“No one has died of Ebola in the U.S. before. This is the first time,” Weeks told ABC News. “We need all the help we can get.”(continued)

I will listen to this person whine AFTER she tells us who paid for his treatment.
If it was me and you, she can STFU.
Oh geez, I can’t believe where they are going with this.
I just can’t believe it. Jesse Jackson was involved too. Which suggests racial overtones to all of this.
Give it time, you parasites.
Someone paid for the treatment in the other cases. Get used to patients on the dole getting lesser treatment by Obolacare.
I was severely flamed on another news site, when I commented and asked who was paying for his treatment, if this dude had health insurance, etc.
Apparently liberals consider it cruel and heartless to ask who is paying a hospital bill.
Africa for Africans!
Go home.
Aerosolized ebola sprayed into the HVAC systems of shopping malls and school buildings.
It was you and me.
F em.
Do you seriously think that someone other than the taxpayers footed the bill?
And the lawsuits will start in 3, 2, 1
I know these racemongers are opportunists.
The question I have is, do they REALLY see EVERYTHING as a race issue?
Or are they just making a buck off it?
He was turned away due in response to new Obamacare Rules at the ER.
No dumbasses... what’s “unfair” is that the productive people of this country will have to pay for your medical expenses, you parasitic POS scumbags.
It’s always ‘unfair’ when there are deep pockets to get into. Did we not say days ago that the family was positioning for a lawsuit, dead or alive?
Dude was given the very Best America had to offer and you whack jobs don’t think it was enough?
Maybe we shouldn’t send a mercy ship to you idiots, the next disaster befalls your sotted country.
A simple thank you for trying would be nice.
