DALLAS (AP) -- Texas Gov. Rick Perry says a handful of school-aged children who had contact with a man diagnosed with Ebola are being monitored.

Perry says health officials learned Wednesday that the children have been identified as having contact with the man and are being monitored at home. The unidentified man has been in isolation at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas since Sunday.

Nope and where are they? They should be screaming from the top of the Capital building. They are in on it or they have been threatened or their families have been threatened. Soros and the Saudis have a lot of money to spread around.

So I’m wondering when the first patient started the symptoms. We know he went to the hospital on Friday, the 26th but was turned away. Now a second patient is starting the symptoms, a mere 5 days after the first patient went to the ER with symptoms. That’s pretty quick transmission.

What about direct contact thing they keep telling us? If someone sneezes or coughs on you, then that’s direct contact.

Name is a good first step. Now follow that up with public disclosure of what is known of where he was and what he did, to be updated with new info twice a day or so until the time between air arrival and admission to hospital is fully understood.

Let those who made contact be made aware. We should never accept a PR flack hide behind HIPPA for something like this.

She says he said hospital officials asked for his Social Security number and he said that he didn’t have one because he was visiting from Liberia.

Did he tell that to the triage nurse/PA or treating physician?

Thomas Eric Duncan doesn’t sound ‘African’............Liberians’ names are very American sounding, since the country was founded by repatriated former slaves..................

General Butt Naked was kind of American sounding. They did have a bunch of guys named Black Rambo and the like during the war.

EMTs who transported the patient were also deemed at risk but had received the all-clear today.

‘kind of interesting since 21 days are required in order to be declared “free” of the disease after contact.D

Reports claim he was symptomatic on the 24th so that moves Patient 2’s timeline back a bit. Still, it’s within the range. Knowing the CDC lies, could there be more than one family member who just came back from Africa? After glancing through their facebooks, there’s a ton of relatives/friends hailing from Liberia and living in Dallas. Some in, or with ties, with the health field. Of course, that would mean there is someone else out there unless they’ve flown back. Who knows. It’s too hard to know what to believe.

One thing you do know... You do know to not believe what the government agents say about anything.
