Nah, Never happen here huh....Really,... I pray people understand whats taking place. Five Dallas school-aged children who had contact with a man diagnosed with Ebola are being monitored. Gov. Rick Perry said health officials learned Wednesday that the children have been identified as having contact with the man. Dallas ISD students in contact with the Ebola patient attended: Hotchkiss ES, Dan D. Rogers ES, Tasby MS and Conrad HS. Jack Lowe ES is being watched because its adjacent to Tasby. The students were in school earlier this week, but are now at home and being monitored. Since the students are not presenting any symptoms, there is nothing to suggest that the disease was spread to others including students and staff, Dallas ISD said in a release. Dallas ISD superintendent Mike Miles says additional health and custodial staff will be at the five schools. The man, now identified by the Associated Press as Thomas Eric Duncan, has been in isolation at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas since Sunday. Duncan is the first person to be diagnosed with Ebola in the U.S. Health authorities have not revealed his nationality or age. He was listed in serious condition Wednesday. Authorities say the ambulance crew who transported the man and members of his family are among the 12 to 18 people being monitored after exposure to the man.
