DALLAS (AP) — A Dallas hospital says it is isolating a patient who is showing signs of having the Ebola virus.

Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas said in a statement Monday night that the patient’s symptoms and travel history suggest the patient may have Ebola, the virus that has killed more than 3,000 people across West Africa.     

The hospital expects to receive preliminary test results Tuesday from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Presbyterian Hospital says it’s taking measures to keep its doctors, staff and patients safe.

  1. And so the orchestrated Ebola panic begins. It’ll just take a few more headlines (or weeks of them) before your TV-addicted, idiotic neighbor is calling the cops on anyone that sneezes.

    YOU didn’t educate him, so now he’s your problem.

  2. Crap, this is 30 minutes away from me.

    You know, this whole Ebola crisis seems like a farce. If it was so bad, how come their precautions suck and how come it hasn’t spread like wildfire everywhere?

    Anytime a major disease strikes, it hits fast everywhere. All it takes is one tiny leak. This is not fast. This seems orchestrated or fake.
