Default Passenger at Orlando airport with Ebola symptoms?

Well, at least that is what the MEDIA says. I hate when they do stuff like this. Scare us with such heading but look at the last paragraph.

Passenger with Ebola symptoms removed from plane in Orlando

I find it interesting that after speaking to the individual, they/he or she were released. Sounds like a real investigated analysis! From what I've read, the only sure way to be sure is a blood sample and then a lab analysis, taking temps, etc. does not tell anything......but I suppose one had to be there. Its scary, Duncan was sent home with a 103 deg temp. one can only speculate on the number of people he could have or did infect.

I am monitoring the situation closely. Although we have some lead time on this I am not booking any cruises or planning to fly anywhere I absolutely do not have to go. In the future I may even get a Prius and start driving rather than fly.

And the article starts off with "Last Updated: Monday, October 06, 2014, 5:21 PM"

I'm not going to lose sleep over this article.

Maybe a good way to stay as healthy as possible is to stay inside your house, not going out to entertainment at the squares, not going to dinner, not going to friend's homes, or club meetings.

Seal the windows and doors of your house with duct tape. Do not turn on your air conditioner in case the virus is now airborne.

Or go on with your life and enjoy The Villages but use normal precautions as you would do in flu season.

Or have our government, whose primary responsibility is to protect us, take appropriate action to keep this disease out of our country.
