Yes, he knew
Duncan might have contracted Ebola while trying to save a pregnant woman’s life, reported the New York Times. Duncan helped take the woman, Marthalene Williams, 19, to the hospital by taxi in Monrovia, Liberia. She was convulsing and seven months pregnant. When they arrived, the hospital said there was not enough room for her in the Ebola treatment ward, so they were forced to return home. She died hours later, around 3 a.m. Sept. 20. Two other people who came into contact with Williams contracted Ebola and died, the Heavy added.
I am in Dallas this week, and live near Houston. I am following this for sure.
I can't find information about his family being us citizens or not.
Citizenship aside, I am also curious if they released him prematurely after the initial hospital visit because he didn't have insurance. I am not saying they would release him if they suspected ebola, but maybe they didn't take enough time with him because of no insurance (I am not saying that he did or did not have travelers insurance).
We need to temporarily stop entry of citizens from West Africa. If a USA citizen must travel there for business, they need to be cable to afford a. 21 day quarantine before getting on a plane back until this is resolved. Just my opinion
