The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has confirmed the first patient to accidentally carry Ebola to the United States has been diagnosed at a hospital in Dallas.

Four other people with Ebola — all medical volunteers working in West Africa — have been evacuated to the U.S. for treatment but this is the first case in a traveler. The patient’s at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas. The CDC said it would release more details later Tuesday.

Reading between the lines of the articles I have read, it doesn't look good.

If the reports are correct, then this patient returned from Liberia over two weeks ago, carrying the virus. He began showing symptoms FOUR DAYS PRIOR TO GOING TO THE HOSPITAL. How many people do you suppose he came into contact with during that time period? Did he go out to a mall? Use public transportation? Go to a public park? Or a concert? Or a ball game? How about all of the people that he did come into contact with. How many other people have they spoken to or shook hands with or ridden on a bus with.

I am waiting to hear that shofar, any old second now...

I bet they will come up with an even bigger number of those who may have been exposed.
