Ebola Patient Traveled By Air Day Before Symptoms Surfaced

DALLAS (CBSDFW.COM) – The CDC has announced that the second healthcare worker diagnosed with Ebola — now identified as Amber Joy Vinson of Dallas — traveled by air Oct. 13, the day before she first reported symptoms.

The CDC is now reaching out to all passengers who flew on Frontier Airlines flight 1143 Cleveland to Dallas/Fort Worth. The flight landed at 8:16 p.m. CT.

The CDC is asking all 132 passengers on the flight to call 1 800-CDC INFO (1 800 232-4636). Public health professionals will begin interviewing passengers about the flight after 1 p.m. ET.

Vinson first reported a fever on Tuesday (Oct. 14) and was isolated within 90 minutes, according to officials. She did not exhibit symptoms while on the Monday flight, according to crew members. However, the passenger notification is needed due to the proximity in time between the flight and the first reported symptoms.

Frontier Airlines is working closely with the CDC to identify and notify all passengers on the flight. The airline also says the plane has been thoroughly cleaned and was removed from service following CDC notification early Wednesday morning.

However, according to Flighttracker, the plane was used for five additional flights on Tuesday before it was removed from service. Those flights include a return flight to Cleveland, Cleveland to Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport (FLL), FLL to Cleveland, Cleveland to Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), and ATL to Cleveland.

“Those who have exposures to Ebola, she should not have traveled on a commercial airline,” said Dr. Tom Frieden, Director of the CDC. “The CDC guidance in this setting outlines the need for controlled movement. That can include a charter plane; that can include a car; but it does not include public transport. We will from this moment forward ensure that no other individual who is being monitored for exposure undergoes travel in any way other than controlled movement.”

Frieden specifically noted that the remaining 75 healthcare workers who treated Thomas Duncan at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital will not be allowed to fly. The CDC will work with local and state officials to accomplish this.

The latest Ebola diagnosis was announced by the Texas Department of State Health Services early Wednesday morning.

Vinson is the second worker at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital to be diagnosed after providing health care to Duncan, the first person to be diagnosed with Ebola in the United States. He died last week.

Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings addressed the media on Wednesday, saying the patient lives alone and has no pets.

“It may get worse before it gets better,” Rawlings said, “but it will get better.”

Crews worked to decontaminate the common areas of Vinson’s Dallas apartment building Tuesday morning. The apartment unit will be decontaminated by contractors starting early Wednesday afternoon.

The CDC announced that Vinson will be transported to Emory Hospital in Atlanta for further treatment. Two previous American Ebola patients, Dr. Kent Brantly and Nancy Writebol, were treated at Emory and were the first Ebola patients to be treated in the United States. They were released in August.

Nina Pham was diagnosed with the virus over the weekend and remains isolated in good condition. Pham’s dog — a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Bentley — has been taken into custody and is being cared for at an undisclosed location.

Frontier Airlines released the following statement:

“At approximately 1:00 a.m. MT on October 15, Frontier was notified by the CDC that a customer traveling on Frontier Airlines flight 1143 Cleveland to Dallas/Fort Worth on Oct. 13 has since tested positive for the Ebola virus. The flight landed in Dallas/Fort Worth at 8:16 p.m. local and remained overnight at the airport having completed its flying for the day at which point the aircraft received a thorough cleaning per our normal procedures which is consistent with CDC guidelines prior to returning to service the next day. It was also cleaned again in Cleveland last night. Previously the customer had traveled from Dallas Fort Worth to Cleveland on Frontier flight 1142 on October 10.

Customer exhibited no symptoms or sign of illness while on flight 1143, according to the crew. Frontier responded immediately upon notification from the CDC by removing the aircraft from service and is working closely with CDC to identify and contact customers who may traveled on flight 1143.

Customers who may have traveled on either flight should contact CDC at 1 800 CDC-INFO.

The safety and security of our customers and employees is our primary concern. Frontier will continue to work closely with CDC and other governmental agencies to ensure proper protocols and procedures are being followed.”

Megyn Kelly Grills CDC Director: 'Why Should We Believe You?'

Fox News Insider

`

Megyn Kelly tonight pressed CDC Director Dr. Thomas Frieden on the government’s response to the Ebola threat.

Kelly reminded Frieden that he assured the public that the U.S. would stop Ebola in its tracks. But now, Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan has died, and one of the nurses that cared for him also has Ebola, though Frieden said health care workers would be trained.

“The American public looks at you and says, ‘Why should we trust you, and why should we trust the administration when Barack Obama told us we are prepared if Ebola reaches our shores and that the medical personnel would be adequately trained?’” Kelly said.

Frieden admitted that it’s “deeply troubling” that a nurse has contracted Ebola.

Still, he pledged, “We will stop the chains of transmission, I have no doubt about that. But it’s not going to be easy, and in West Africa, it’s not going to be quick.”

Dr. Frieden inspires absolutely NO confidence in me.

What this EBOLA virus shows us is that we ARE completely UNprepared for an attack whether it be buy a accidental virus implant OR a viral attack purposely placed by one of our enemies.

This EBOLA virus makes us humans look like a sitting duck.

Thanks to the SCHMUK trying to ruin this nation.

When Dr. Frieden blamed the nurse For becoming infected, I KNEW he was an incompetent BOOB!

During my career as an RN, any physician who BLAMED others for problems were the least competent.

I just added  information on Thomas Frieden, now Director of the CDC.

He was Commissioner of Health and 'Mental Hygiene' from 2002 to 2009 when he was appointed to his current position as Director of the CDC.

He is an 'Orwellian Activist' as you will see if you read my post....he is actually LESS competent than our incompetent president.

His "protocals" are nowhere to be found and his 'actions' [or lack thereof] in endangering the entire nation.

Our borders remain open, flights from affected Western African Nations continue to enter our airports.

.....and where might we find president INCOMPETENT????????? Fundraising and playing golf.

Maybe the country will get lucky and an infected Ebola patient will throw up all over the pompous ass who is Obama.
