2+2=4 X the Love ♥ Donating Member | 144 People in Ohio being monitored for Ebola WOW . . There are 144-159 People in Ohio being monitored for Ebola. Its so scary to thing that its hours away from my home town plus I have family in Akron. I know that there are some YT members from Akron as well. Ebola fears chaotic for Ohio bridal shop owners - CNN.com Some Hamilton County residents under Ebola watch, state says - Story Thank goodness they moved quickly and are keeping those who came in contact with her monitored for symptoms. In my opinion this women had no business getting on a plain and flying to Ohio or anywhere else after coming into contact and treating an Ebola patient. In her defense there should have been some sort of protocol followed and sadly there was not. They had to have know that this was a possibility and travel should have been restricted and that mean to and from Africa also. I pray the nurse and those that she may have infected will be OK.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Wow...well, hopefully the outcome will be that these folks will not have contracted the virus. It does sound like she was barely symptomatic when in Ohio, so her viral load may have been a bit lower than it could be at its worse. My fingers are crossed for these people.

| I know, I know. If I made one post on this subject since it all started, I have made 50,000 on an International site where I am trying to keep all posted and up to date with friends of over 10 years although their Guardian newspaper always does a good job. We have people who want to learn from out mistakes from England, Germany, Wales, Ireland etc. England feels they will have it in their country by the end of October but I don't and I think in Ohio I'm optimistic. It's good news that the ones in isolation from being exposed to Mr. Dunken are showing no signs of Ebola and it's their 21 day. I was a bit upset with our government with the pick of Czar but maybe he just might work if only he had some experience with the W-H-O or CDC. I think most people would rather kill than have that job so I admire him for taking it. He'll sure get the blame if it doesn't work out. The mistakes in Dallas were terrible but we have all learned from those mistakes which is good. Thanks Ann, it was scary for awhile since my Grand Daughter is in Omaha but she told me later they are in the best place if it had to happen with their wonderful Medical Facility....the Cameraman is doing really well. Then she started praying for me/all of us here. We'll be fine. (fingers crossed)

| I doubt the Ohioans have anything to worry about if the main story we have heard about Vinson's symptoms while there are correct. I've heard two differing versions of when she felt ill so don't know which is correct. But since the family of Duncan have apparently escaped the disease even after being in close contact with him after the frank onset of fever, vomiting and diarrhea for at least two days before he was admitted to Presbyterian Hospital and didn't get sick, it would lead one to conclude that those who were merely in the room or even near Vinson before she was ill would be safe. This as Duncan's relatives and fiancee who further remained in the apartment after Duncan, where virus had certainly been shed on many surfaces of clothing, towels, sheets, furniture, walls, bathroom surfaces, dishes, etc., for another few days and not one of the relatives got sick from virus on even environmental surfaces and his wet linens. That seems to show the current viral strain is fragile off its host. Yet when Duncan got into the hospital, at some point his viral load became so high that his bodily fluids infected Pham and Vinson, while both were wearing and/or doffing protective equipment. Further, apparently the early viral load in even a newly sick patient apparently isn't sufficient to sicken a well person with a healthy immune system. Apparently even if you get some early, small amount of virus from contact with a newly sick person, healthy immune systems can kill it unlike when one gets a dose of very heavy viral load which is too heavy for its new host to totally kill off, then begins to incubate, grows to a level to sicken but with a still low viral load early on. But as the virus progresses, it is said to eventually replicate so fast and in such vast numbers, it eventually overwhelms the immune systems of even healthy people, who become quite sick and highly infectious and contagious to anyone who gets any of their bodily fluids into his or her body.

| Akron is about an hour from me. Hopefully all those people stay healthy and this is the end of it.

| The people I feel sorry for are the people that stumbled into this situation with this contaminated nurse, who was fully aware of what she had been exposed to and had the medical knowledge to follow through with the self containment orders. She chose to take her time off to fly home and do a little wedding planning, then try to blame the CDC for not telling her she needed to stay home. Supposedly, she was taking Tylenol to keep her fever down so she could fly.....so wrong. Then there is the unfortunate lady who owns the bridal shop....the money this is going to cost her, and has already cost her, could very easily ruin her business to the point where she can not recover financially. Then there are the people that own Frontier Airlines, as well as all the passengers that are now having to be monitored.....so very sad that the airlines will have to spend millions of dollars to clean and change out carpeting and seats, not to mention the cost of cancelled flights, and people that will not fly the airlines because of fear of exposure to the disease. So unnecessary and so sad for all the innocent collaterials. |

| Heck, I hope most of us would know not to travel at all, let alone commercially, especially to be around loved ones and friends, right after we'd treated/touched a suspected or hospitalized Ebola patient, even if we'd always worn a full bio-suit - just in case we'd unknowingly become contaminated and were incubating or should some viral mutation have taken place. I'd like to think most of us would have stayed home, out of circulation, until the full incubation period had passed.

Looks like there was no reason for Spain to kill Romero's little dog, as they never have not published results on positive stool tests on Excalibur, even done post-mortem. That leads me to believe that never did them or they were negative for Ebola or even Ebola DNA. I read today that the healing nurse still hasn't been told her little Excalibur is dead, killed by the state. That's going to hit her like a rock, especially when she hears about Bentley being kept alive, quarantined and tested until proven virus-free. I hate that she has to face that awful reality just when she's looking forward to getting him in her arms again. Losing any dog is so very hard but losing little Excalibur like that is going to be so hard on her after all she's been through.

s. This is wonderful new's. They said he will tested on more time at the 21 day time limit before he can be free. ALSO, the nurse who flew on the plane, it was just released here on the Dallas new's stations, that she is now testing Ebola free. No more Ebola in her system.

| I hope someone films the reunion between Pham and Bentley.....you just know that is going to be a fabulous, heart warming thing to behold!! I think that baby was a mill rescue.....??? He is probably wondering what he did wrong to Pham to end up back in a "cage in a puppy mill"....I KNOW in reality they actually do not think things like that....but it is always in my mind that they do! |
