In reply to the discussion: Dallas Ebola infection/incubation timeline 10.19.14 (Duncan's family in 21st day!) [View all]LisaL
(44,985 posts)44. You are posting false information.
Vinson already had a fever when she flew.
I have never seen reported anywhere her viral load was low.
CDC now says it's possible she was already experiencing symptoms for days before she flew.
Numerous people are being monitored or ask to self-monitor.
And there you are making your claims that it's likely over.
"There are now 153 people being monitored in Ohio because of contact or potential contact with Vinson. That number was 116 on Saturday."
