Second Ebola Case Recorded in The United States

Published by
Texas Hospital

Three days after the death of Thomas Duncan, another infection has been recorded in the United States.

The panic of Ebola is getting really crippling as it leaves thousands dead in it’s wake and pushes the boundaries to become more feared than HIV among humans.

As even dogs across the world have started contracted the deadly Ebola which kills in a matter of days, nobody is safe no matter what country you are in. Ebola is not restricted to Africa.

Second Ebola case confirmed in the USA as Dallas health care worker tests positive…

A worker at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital who treated Thomas Eric Duncan, the first person in the U.S. to be diagnosed with Ebola, was given a preliminary test for the deadly disease at a state lab in Austin. The result was positive.

“We knew a second case could be a reality, and we’ve been preparing for this possibility,” said Dr. David Lakey, commissioner of the Texas Department of State Health Services. “We are broadening our team in Dallas and working with extreme diligence to prevent further spread.”

The worker has since been isolated and interviewed to find out who he has been in contact with to help health officials trace and monitor who has been exposed to him. With the death of Thomas Duncan, Texas has not seen the end of Ebola.

My only wonder now is; will this worker survive unlike Thomas Duncan? What different methods or medication will be used and are there more people who have been in contact with this man walking about out there with Ebola just waiting to show?
