The Ebola virus arrived in the U.S.A

Despite the control of borders, the Ebola virus arrived in the USA. The first patient diagnosed with Ebola in the U.S.A is Thomas Eric Duncan. He's a Liberian official and he has 42 years old.

This was his first trip to the U.S to visit some relatives especially his son and son mother. He traveled 8.000 miles from Morovia, the capital of Liberia, to Brussels (Belgium) and another flight to Washington and to Dallas.

He had contact with people infected because in his country he shared a home rented with a woman that died by disease Ebola, said the community lead. In September 15th he had contact with a seven month pregnant woman who fells on the street and couldn't go to the hospital by herself, so he carried in a taxi to the hospital. Probably in one of the both situations he was infected by the virus.

Willfred Smallwood, Duncan's half-brothers told that in Liberia is common the people help everyone like Duncan helped. His family believe that Duncan traveled to the U.S. without feeling symptoms of the disease. Liberia authorities asked him through a health questionnaire if he had contact with people infected or he touched patient's bodies who died by Ebola virus and he said NO.

After four days he was in the hospital Texas Health Presbyterian feeling symptoms and just told that he traveled from Africa. The hospital suspected that this information wasn't full and communicated the full medical team. Duncan's family crossed the U.S.A. from Arizona to North Caroline but they couldn't contact him because his health conditional is so serious. He just feel pain.

Now, the health officials are following about one hundred people that had contact or a brief contact with Duncan. He is isolated and receive all assistance necessary by the hospital. Americans doesn't need be afraid because the situation is on control.
