I imagine they will get to keep the laptops, TV, games, clothes and things they were given, plus many more things that are no doubt coming their way by compassionate and big-hearted people from their church and others. And they probably will get to stay in the home if they want until they can reasonably be expected to be able to resume a bearable life out in society, return to school, get jobs, etc., as just like with AIDS, this disease seems to cause so many in surrounding neighborhoods plus some others, real jitters, totally unnecessary unless they are actually having Ebola-like symptoms.

Judge Jenkins said they had so little in that apartment they were living in - two straight chairs, I think a couch and TV, and that Troh was sleeping on the living room floor as the bedroom was unusable, with very little food and Deputy Monnig said with very poor lighting - I truly hope those that can will pitch in to help get Louise and those boys who were living in that small place some extra help until and if any liability claim they make is paid, which could be years from now. Of course, their lawyers will advance them money on a contingency basis but unless they can work, they will need more.

Just because, to my mind, some of them put others at some risk of death by having Duncan here during a deadly epidemic and some of them said some irresponsible and vile things about that medical team of 50, CDC, FDA, WHO, etc., doesn't mean they weren't probably struggling to get by, send the children to school, etc., and still need a hand up for now and maybe for quite a while. They've had a real and ongoing tragedy in their lives and no amount of help can replace their loss.

So far so good - no symptoms among any of them or the other contacts as of news this evening. I pray they all stay safe and well, including those nursing him once he was so sick. Even in PPE's and best equipment, it's got to be scary and stressful.
