2nd hand contact inside hospital - for what it's worth...

He just responded:

I do not know yet. He is waiting to find out. I am afraid he will be held there for 21 days.

Ok, I live in a small town a couple hours from Dallas. I also belong to a web group of NE and E Texans who talk about primarily local news and scanner activity. One of the members (whom I do NOT know personally, just a fellow member of the group) posted about 15 hours ago the following (I'm keeping his name private, as he does not know I'm sharing this and I would not feel right including his name.):

I just found out my nephew, who is a nurse, is on lock down at Presby hospital in Dallas with the Ebola patient. Prayers would be greatly appreciated.

A few minutes ago, I PM'd him the following:

[Name], again, my prayers for your nephew and all others involved. Was wondering if you are in contact with him? Do you have any word of his safety? Precautions taken to keep him and any others there with him healthy? I don't know him or you, but am very worried for a fellow Texas caught up in this mess.

May God bless and be with your family.

His response, almost immediately:

He messaged me just a little while ago. They are being held at the Hospital. No one can leave or have personnel contact with any one out side. He says he is being very careful. I told him if things go south his father and I will come get him!


(Yes, I know the whole 'Uncle' thing, but at least it's some info)

During a press conference earlier they said the children are monitored but the adults are under "self" monitoring.

Meaning they are counting on people to report if they develop symptoms.

Of the 12-18 known contacts that is.

I've never understood people who want to live crammed together in a huge city. Seems like a lot of danger and not a lot of reward unless you're making bank just to get out of there soon

I believed this tripe until OP threw in the bit about Obama. I call full on Texas sized

gfy

Glad to see somebody else noticed...SYC

Not so sure, who do you think most will blame? I believe Obama will bear the brunt once this is unleashed in America. Perhaps this is the real reason for the change in SS and the whitehouse sprinter was a set up.

When the SHTF Obama will be hated and I believe if you are black and appear as if you are an immigrant your life will be in danger. Human nature will take over and it will get ugly real fast.

21 days is the limit they put on symptom development. If by 21 days you have not developed symptoms after exposure...they assume you won't ever get the virus.

It wasn't me that mentioned Obama, it was the guy I was talking to. I included his entire statement.

This guy is scared and angry. If he wants to blame Obama and his policies, ok by me.

Besides, I don't think you'll find many in this neck of the woods who disagree with him.

I suspect your title for your thread is the only real thing about it; '2nd hand contact' is obviously your drunk uncle, and you should be ashamed of yourself if you are spreading fear and more



about such a serious subject. Go back to trolling the Faux News sites gramma.

Actually a nurse stated that patients who are mentally capable are free to be admitted or discharged at their own discretion and that no one is being kept against their will..

If this weren't such a serious situation, your post would have been funny. As for my uncle? I've got several and fortunately they live many states away. I have no idea as to their states of intoxication because I don't regularly talk with any of them. If it makes you feel better, though, several of them plant vegetable gardens in the summertime.

All right, we got seven canisters of CN-20. I say we roll them in there and nerve gas the whole fucking nest.

I'd do it but I'm an old lady

Need some young guy to be the GLP Pizza Delivery
