Dallas officials lose contact with man who rode in ambulance after Ebola patient
Police, county sheriff's deputies looking for man who rode in a possibly contaminated ambulance after Ebola patient's rideDallas County law enforcement officers are looking for a man who reportedly rode in the Dallas Fire-Rescue ambulance that had carried a man stricken with Ebola to Texas Health Presbyterian hospital. County Judge Clay Jenkins said Dallas police and county sheriff's deputies are trying to find the man, who reports have suggested is homeless. Authorities have not released the man's name. "not released the man's name"?*&%$!!! Another brain dead decision. Geesh. "We are working to locate the individual and get him to a comfortable, compassionate place where we can monitor him and care for his every need for the full incubation period," Jenkins said in an emailed statement. "I want to emphasize that he is a low risk individual and we are doing this out of precautionary measures." At the CDC's press briefing Sunday, Jenkins appealed to the unidentified man to come forward, perhaps to contact as police officer so that he could be picked up and tested for Ebola symptoms. The man was tested Saturday and showed no signs of the disease. "If he's listening right now, we want to be sure to address his needs," Jenkins said. "We want to be careful and compassionate." NOW you wanna be careful. Shoulda thought of that before letting him slip through your hands. Posted by: Anguper Hupomosing9418 2014-10-05 |
