News conference at 3:30pm.
Person is being rushed to ER right now.
This person claims to have had direct contact with the dead victim now.
Frisco area possible Ebola
FRISCO — Crews are preparing to transport a patient exhibiting "signs and symptoms of Ebola" from a Frisco CareNow to Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas.
The CareNow is located in the 300 block of Main Street. Patients are currently being held inside the clinic as crews at the scene examine staff and others inside the building.
"The patient claims to have had contact with the Dallas 'patient zero,'" according to a statement from Dana Baird-Hanks, a spokeswoman with the city of Frisco.
According to a statement from the clinic, the patient answered "yes" on a form "regarding travel to West Africa."
Police and fire units have surrounded the facility, taped off a gray SUV and isolated other patients at the facility.
Outside the building, people in hazardous material suits readied an ambulance for transport of the patient.
Officials say a conference will be held at 3:30 p.m.
Update at 2:49 p.m.: According to the license plates on the vehicle cordoned off in the CareNow parking lot, the vehicle is registered to a Dallas County Sheriff’s Deputy — a deputy who went into Thomas Eric Duncan’s apartment last week, according to a story that appeared on WFAA’s website earlier this week.
Update at 2:30 p.m. from Eva-Marie Ayala: The CareNow is on the Denton County side of Frisco. As the clinic serves those in both both Denton and Collin counties, officials from both will monitoring the situation.

Don't worry! The US Gov has this all under control. This was also planned. No need to panic.

Ain't no party like an Ebola party.

No details yet.
Unless that person lives in a log cabin without electricity and a tv, there is no way he has missed the fact that he interacted with that guy. If he didn't bring that interaction to someone's attention already and wasn't one of the quarantined individuals, Scruffy doubts it.
There have already been 1000s of "suspected Ebola" cases and zero positives besides Duncan.
