SSpaniel is right. They carted her off and started interrogating her. When they took her temperature it was normal. Then she was left in the room for 3 more hours and no one told her what was happening. When she was nice and angry they took her temp with a forehead scanner and it read 101.
If his implication was there was a multi-hour spread between the temps, he did not state that. He said "They took her temp with an infrared doohickey... it showed high. They said.. AHA... SYMPTOMS. They took it again orally, and it was 98.6" That meme is BS. They did take her temp again after a period of time, and it had returned to normal range. Are you under the impression that might not occur if the initial febrile recording was illness related? If you are under that impression, let's correct it.
The woman was potentially ebola exposed. She had a recorded temperature of 101°F. If she threw spastic conniptions which elevated her temperature, TOUGH! Too bad! She met any reasonable criterion for quarantine until her symptoms declared her noncontagious. Assertions that any reasonable public official should have or would have allowed her to board another airliner are STUPID!
Is that what you are saying?
Are you even so much as hinting that a person with a documented 101° fever, fatigue, and with her given contact and travel history should have been allowed to board another aircraft?
Are you that Christie-hate blinded?
Goodness Gracious Folks!

Well its still ridiculously unlikely that the disease spreads even when a person is running a temp. Which is why the CDC let that Dallas nurse get on a plane.
And guess what. Nobody got Ebola.

I reported the facts. I quoted a first hand account of what happened to back that up. Your statement that she was running a fever "upon arrival" is false. Like a lot of other things you say.
