New Ebola Patient in Dallas?

Monnig tests negative for Ebola

Michael Monnig, who had been in contact with Duncan, visited a Frisco CareNow facility concerned about Ebola-like symptoms and was quickly transported to Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital. The report returned from a lab in Austin on Thursday confirmed that Monnig did not have the Ebola virus, according to the Texas Department of State Health Services.

Ebola test negative for Texas deputy

(CNN) -- A test to see whether a Dallas sheriff's deputy has Ebola came back negative, state health officials said Thursday.
Tests of a specimen from Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas, where he was treated, were negative for the deadly virus, the Texas Department of State Health Services said.
"The professionals at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas are relieved for Deputy Michael Monnig's family and friends that the blood test has been returned quickly and was negative for Ebola," the hospital said in a statement. "Regarding the next steps for this patient, physicians will determine the best course of treatment and the date for a hospital release."
Word of the test result is welcome news a day after the death of Thomas Eric Duncan, the Texas Ebola patient who was the first person diagnosed with the virus on American soil.

I think this is a situation of one of the first hypochondriacs of many to come.

Ill eat these words if wrong.

They guy supposedly has been monitoring his temperature non-stop since walking into the apartment complex.

We will see a lot more of this. Heck Im even at times a hypochondriac. It is however, better to be safe than sorry. I just hope in the future people don't show up at clinics.

Does this mean 'cuz I bleach my hair that I have a better chance of surviving an Ebola pandemic???

No. If you contract Ebola you will most likely die an agonizing death. The good news though, is your scalp will be immune. You'll check out with lovely hair.

don't go.

I am worried about them dismissing this guy. He was ill with something.

This is extremely interesting and concerning:
www.cnn.com...

In the video above, they detail how the nurse in Spain went to the doctor several times over days. They said she did not have Ebola because she did not have a fever and then her fever was not high enough. They said she had the flu. She kept going back saying that she was ill and was exposed to Ebola, and they kept sending her home. Even when she was so ill she had to call for an ambulance, they did not take it seriously at first. The ambulance that was used to transport her went right back out and transported 7 more patients before they were told to disinfect. The doctors caring for her at the hospital did not know to use precautions.

So, for days they told this person she did not have Ebola. But she did.

We know this happened with Duncan at first. As others have stated, it is known that the tests can be inaccurate in the very early stages.

This deputy feeling ill needs to be taken more seriously, at least for a while. I hope they are not dropping the ball again.

TV NEWS reporting that the Dallas Deputy has tested negative for EBOLA. So far. That's good news for him and for everyone else (considering how poorly this all went down).

Anyone see Judge Clay Jenkins lately?

I have been scouring news for any sighting of Judge Jugghead as I figured he would be out front of as many cameras as possible seeing as he is up for re-election and to reassure the public that Ebola is not that easy to catch.

Anyone?

So, for days they told this person she did not have Ebola. But she did.

It's the western mentality of "That can't happen here."
They don't accept the worst even when it walks up and announces it's existence in simple declarative sentences.

Anyone who might entertain the idea of the worst happening is immediately labelled a kook ... or a terrorist, so nobody in the west readily accepts these things coming from somebody else.

The illusion that we are in control must be maintained at all costs.

Well, my local news interviewed the wife and she said the CDC TOLD him to drive to a clinic. This feels planned.

Is this the second test? The CDC test results? (The first one was from the Austin lab)

To be sure he needs to be quarantined for 21 days. The viral count or the tissue site tested may not register positive if viral load is low. Viral titers need to be high enough to test positive on pcr test which is usually done on blood sample.

Yes! I've been on a different thread trying to make this point. If you seek care the first day upon showing symptoms the PCR Ebola test may show a false negative, as it usually takes more than three days for the virus to show. That's how early symptoms get missed. The Dallas Deputy had a fever, aching joints, stomach pains and fatigue. Those are all classic early signs. The CareNow clinic felt these symptoms were enough of a match to inform the CDC. It's interesting how the clinic closed down for TWO days to do a deep cleaning. Why?

Everyone has reported he did not have a fever but his wife, during an interview, let it slip that he had a HIGH fever. Could she have been mad enough that the CDC didn't tell the family first that the results were negative( and that she had to find out on the news) that she decided to tell the truth?

Also, what happened to the two other deputies that were showing signs of illness? CNN did an interview with the President of the Dallas Franternal Order of Police and revealed this. No one has said a word about it since.

I smell a big cover-up!

I think we're seeing a cover-up here.

It feels planned because you see a conspiracy where there is none. Ebola is a very deadly disease with a VERY low chance of transmission unless you live in a country where very literally, you crap where you eat and bathe.


Duncans family did not get sick because THE USA HAS PLUMBING.... and soap.... and crazy sorts of things like that.

The same core people at ATS are going literally to 3 new ebola threads a day spewing doom porn and conspiracies.... I love a good conspiracy theory.. but this one people... is NOT.

lol... I mean carry on. I don't care. Its great reading.

Maybe, but the CDC telling him to drive to a clinic? Why in the world would they suggest this instead of calling 911? If he did, indeed, have Ebola he just exposed all the people in the clinic to this disease. It wasn't like he called them because he was exposed; the deputy woke up SICK. Exposing more people to this virus is dangerous. Even the CDC knows this!

It DOES feel like a conspiracy, maybe because I live in the heart of this mess. The constant mishandling by the CDC, our officials, the hospital...It keeps going on and on.
