It was inevitable,it was gonna happen sooner or later and now the US has recorded it's first case of Ebola.The patient was admitted at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has confirmed that ,an unidentified patient who recently returned from Liberia West Africa area is currently being treated for the deadly Ebola virus at a Dallas, Texas hospital.According to NYDaily news,a press release by the hospital reads..
Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital had admitted a patient Monday into strict isolation “based on the patient’s symptoms and recent travel history,”
“The hospital is following all Centers for Disease Control and Texas Department of Heath recommendations to ensure the safety of patients, hospital staff, volunteers, physicians and visitors,”
Zachary Thompson, the director of the Dallas County Health and Human Services, said Tuesday morning that the Dallas County is ready to care for the Ebola patient.


"This is not Africa,"We have a great infrastructure to deal with an ebola outbreak."
Was there really a need for a statement like that?Americans and their arrogance.I remember HIV/Aids  caused serious havoc in America,so these things can happen.There can be an epidemic where ever.Admittedly the capabilities to handle it in some places are higher than others.I wish the patient a speedy recovery and hope that's the last case of Ebola we hear in the United States of America.
