        @DrFriedenCDC @TexasDSHS Is it true the patient was sent home after initial triage on 24th? Contact tracing will be critical in this case.

        @DrFriedenCDC @TexasDSHS there needs to be better screening for people coming in from areas with Ebola. Period of isolation?

        @DrFriedenCDC @TexasDSHS Air traffic in/out of the infected areas must be addressed. It's simply logic.
