re: Uh oh. Second patient may have Ebola in Dallas. Possibly school aged contact

Thomas Eric Duncan explained to a nurse Friday that he was visiting the U.S. from Liberia, but that information was not widely shared, said Dr. Mark Lester, who works for the hospital's parent company.

Duncan's answer "was not fully communicated" throughout the hospital's medical team, Lester said.

Instead, the patient was sent home with antibiotics, according to his sister, Mai Wureh, who identified her brother as the infected man in an interview with The Associated Press.
