No. I've already pointed out the fallacy in the timeline of what they have said vs. what they are saying now. We are not getting the full story from them. Period.

Nonetheless, you've already admitted that your knowledge of the subject hinges on a brief conversation you had with your "phd buddy". So you personally have nothing to add to the conversation with respect to any literature you have reviewed on the subject of ebola, Mr. "what's the problem". The problem is people like you. Educate yourself, before you go around trying to blast people over when a patient is symptomatic and contagious. That's not the point of the thread. The real point is that she should have never been allowed to travel after being determined to be a contact.

The risk has gone up because too many people like yourself think it is not a big deal and so they go ahead and get on a plane, or go out to pick up lunch while under quarantine.
