Yeah, she's a nurse that got it from an ebola infected missioner that was flown home to Spain for treatment.
She is isolated now.

Are people going on tilt or just edgy? Is it really that serious, I'm reading that this stuff is kinda like influenza in which case we're talking business as usual. Not implying that that's good.
The false positives are signs of being edgy.
Otherwise I wouldn't compare Ebola to influenza. Ebola virus can survive up to 10x longer than influenza and kills up to 50%-80% of people it effects. Center for Disease Control thinks there could be 1.5 million cases within 4 months.
Still that's only 700,000 people dying when the US has over 1+ million legal immigrants in a year
1.4 million under the complete best circumstances is what the CDC predicts and that's a long shot. That's the best scenario with people slobbering all over each other. In my opinion, Ebola while deadly, is containable. In Africa, the death toll is at 3,400 plus after months with mediocre treatment, and the most of all, ignorance. When I say ignorance, I mean people believing Ebola is a government scam or personally carrying Ebola victims with no protection. Even with the ignorance and poor technology, we are at a relatively small amount of deaths for the magnitude of the disease.

No, it's more like Outbreak, The Strain, and World War Z.In that order.
Are those movies any good. I seen world war z, but outbreak and the strain?
I personally think the ebola should be contained, since they are running out of vaccines.
It'll be contained alright. No way will it be able to cross south of the border. Sorry, Canada.
How does that make sense for you? Assuming your in the states and you just had a case, an outbreak would mean it woul dbe contained in the states with your quote and thus Canada would be safe?
I'm really not worried about it; as far as I know about the disease, while its effects are extreme, it's hard to actually get the stuff; you'd have to actually be near a person who has it, then you have to get some of his fluids not just on you, but in you, which even then the former can be subverted by washing your hands with regular soap. Until I hear about ebola cases occurring in my own town, I'm not going to lose much sleep over it. There is no scare, it's just that the areas in Africa in which ebola is occurring, the people are stupid as hell.
True that! Otherwise we would be seeing HAZMAT decom... Oh, wait!
Meanwhile, this is how fucked we are.

Best I can tell, people are surprisingly calm for the time being in the Dallas area.Are we concerned Ebola has landed in Dallas ? Yes.
Are people in Dallas losing their shit ? No. Not yet.
If it has been spread to others, then I'm fairly sure people will become more on edge, but it's not like we're expecting the end of the world or anything.
The general feeling I get is that people are expecting this will become a non-issue in the next 40 days. I hope.
Meanwhile, on the cover of Dallas Weekly Magazine...

I've seen people go from one extreme to the other on this one. Some people are buying into the hysteria and are completely freaking out. Like SARS, I expect to see people walking the streets wearing particulate masks any day now, LOL!
It can only be passed through direct contact of bodily fluids. There is no reason it should have got as big as it has. Starting to think it's only got to this point so big brother can come up with a miracle vaccine . I imagine there are Billions and Billions of dollars to be made for a "cure"

No more than usual, except for that whole looming threat of Ebola that has people on edge.

What would you do if you would live there. Barricade and fight it or get the hell out of Texas.
In any pandemic, you either want to be one of the first or last that gets sick. If you are first, you have access to medical care. Once the medical systems gets overloaded you are screwed.
I agree, if you get sick at last, no one will help you get better. here will much more die among those last then among this first ones.

At the same news conference, Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins said authorities were looking for a "low-risk individual" identified as someone who may have been exposed to the deadly virus.
He said authorities were “working to locate the individual and get him to a comfortable, compassionate place where we can monitor him and care for his every need for the full incubation period. Jenkins noted that the "person has not committed a crime."
The individual was last monitored on Saturday, Frieden said, then went "missing."
