Amber Jay Vinson, the second nurse to be diagnosed with Ebola, flew home to her family while being monitored by the CDC and was on a flight from Cleveland, Ohio, to Dallas just one day before she was hospitalized with the deadly disease.

Everyone who was on board the plane is asked to call 1-800-CDC-INFO (1-800-232-4636) so that they can be interviewed by CDC doctors to determine who is at risk for possible exposure to Ebola.

The fact that she traveled across the country on commercial airlines within the 21-day incubation period for Ebola calls into question what guidance, if any, the CDC offered to the dozens of people who may still be carrying the virus.

All the fancy- medical places talk a big game, but walking the walk is a whole different story.

The CDC head guy trying to be re-assuring in his drone voice......thinks he's lulling people to sleep.

Another worker comes down with ebola.....who didn't follow the CDC rules? Maybe the CDC doesn't know ALL the ways ebola is spread.
Do these people really know what they think they know ????

You know ,what I wanna know is where is gov.perry???

Here is the gov
Ebola's in Texas. Rick Perry's in Europe.

If you're governor of Texas, it's probably best to stay close to home during hurricane season and when Ebola is spreading in your state. This week, Rick Perry is in Europe.

The governor's absence comes as a second Ebola case has been diagnosed in Dallas, triggering a leadership test and opportunity to look presidential — or ineffectual — on the national stage as he contemplates a second White House bid.

Perry, in a stroke of bad timing, is on a previously scheduled economic development trip to England, Germany, Poland and Ukraine. He's scheduled to give a speech in London on Tuesday at the Royal United Services Institute. In addition to holding business meetings in each country, he also plans to explore opportunities to expand the export of liquefied natural gas from Texas to Poland and Ukraine

OMG, say it ain't so? He left his home state to run to Europe for a conference while an infectious disease is on the loose there? (That's what Fox News would have you believe anyway) Where's those leadership skills that he's been telling us about? Doesn't the governor have a duty to protect his people and take an active role in a situation like this?
If I was a right wing blogger like say Jim Hoft at the Gateway Pundit, I'd probably be telling you that an unnamed source has confirmed that Rick Perry left Texas because he was afraid he might become contaminated with the disease and he's a also a major germophobe.

I wonder why the media elites haven't bothered to ask why Rick Perry has been AWOL so far in the Ebola scare they've been heavily promoting?

He's not a doctor.......he's worthless in this crisis. Even some doctors are worthless in this.

You know morley had this been President Obama leaving for Europe, Fox Propaganda would have had all their "experts" on to tell their brain-dead viewers how terrible it is for a leader to leave during a time of crisis. But of course, Fox Propaganda is ignoring the fact that Rick Goodhair has hightailed it out of TX. But then again, perhaps Fox Propaganda doesn't want their brain-dead viewers to know that TX will be fine while the TX idiot is tiptoeing through Europe making a fool of himself.He is out of the country, so as to avoid having to answer questions about his state's lack of health care coverage and how he has placed the lives of those he is governing at risk.....

On his way back to Texas. Why?
Governors don't have much authority over biological threats. That falls under federal powers.

He's probably on a scheduled trip to lure more business to Texas....fat chance now. People won't even travel to Texas, let alone move there.

Keep out anyone with a passport from the west African area.
Should have been done weeks ago.

Isn't that the same Rick Perry who says that for-profit business and the states can do anything far better than the federal government? I haven't heard him say what for-profit business or even the State of Texas would do to handle the Ebola outbreak, have you?

CDC screwed up , fire his ass. The last infected nurse went to Ohio to help with a wedding and was getting a fever. She called CDC to see if it was okay to fly and they said yes.

Where is Canadian Ted Cruz (R-Nazi) during all this hubbub?It reminds me of stories about the days of bubonic plague, when the ruling classes would flee the cities and camp on their summer estates out in the country.Whats next a tan suit???????

Governors can declare Marshall law.

It was just reported that Gov. Oops Perry will be cutting his trip short to return to Tex-ass. Want to bet he spends the next three weeks walking around in a full hazmat suit?
At least he isn't flying around the country for a day because he's too scared to land and face the horror (now let's see, what former president, also from texass, did that in 2001? I think it was Sept 11).And HE, of all people, questions Obama's leadership??? What a JOKE!

You have never traveled with your family when one of them wasn't feeling 100%? Happens all the time.
