Imho, I think we should all self quarantine for 21 days to slow down the spread. Unfortunately most people I know are in denial and they all live in texas very close to dallas. Everyone is going on about their day as usual.
Yes it amazes me, I brought this up this morning to a co-worker.
I said "Did you hear they have confirmed an Ebola case in Dallas?"
Her response "I don't watch the news any more, it is too depressing." Wow, just wow.
I think her nickname will be "Ostrich" from this point on...
five schools in Dallas have a student thay has been exposed. Guess what they are doing to help... hiring more custodians. Shut down the freaking schools you idiots!!!

How many children had contact with the patient?
How many of those children attended school and had contact with other children?
(think lunch, p.e., recess, bathrooms...)
How many of those newly exposed children went home to be tucked into bed with a nice little goodnight kiss from mommy?
My "poop hitting the fan" meter went up a notch today.
I have been begging my family to leave and come stay with me. They refuse.

If I were in Dallas I'd definitely consider packing my bags and taking a small, unplanned vacation for a few days..somewhere else.And see how this developes over the next few days.

I'm less worried about Ebola down in Texas than I am about
Denver-area children stricken by partial paralysis puzzle neurologists here in Colorado...
There 10 of these kids in the Hospital right now and doctors still don't know they why's and what-for's ... this comes on top of the 900+ sick kinds we had with that enterovirus 68 deal...
Thats terrible! No I have not heard the news of this.WTH is going on?

In the press conference now "The chance of Ebola spreading is very, very small." Oh really?! The fact they are down playing this frightens me even more.
The media blows up the slightest little thing & from what I've been seeing this morning it's all "move along, nothing to see here."
We should all be very worried IMO.

Maybe its too soon to evacuate but I would certainly be monitoring all local news and social media very closely.
