Pray it's a false alarm, and this is just a touch of flu or some less alarming malady easily treated and cured. If positive, he's been in NYC for 10 days...God only knows how many contacts he's made.

ReplyDeleteIs this what life in the United States is going to be like for the next several months? Ebola worries -- some of which are legitimate worries, as is this case.
