Was only a matter of time, especially since there's normal air travel going on with the outbreak area. You could read that this was coming in the CDC reports, constantly briefing US staff on what to do when you identify a patient, etc.
Don't pay that close attention, have they ever figured out what the reservoir species are for the virus in Africa? It seems to me that it would be much worse if it somehow ended up in a domestic species that it could use as a petri dish, the way it resurfaces every year in Africa. There are a handful of people in the US that get bubonic plague every year.
the guy left Liberia symptom free on 10/19, first felt sick on the 24th, and sought treatment on the 26th. so he was here a week before he went to the hospital. who did he come in contact with during that time? did he sneeze on the plane, did stewardesses touch his tray, or his food, or his food wrappers? did he kiss his wife, his kids...does the CDC know any of this?
bye, bye Dallas. <iframe width="640" height="480" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/aFM-xKKb6pw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
