I would think that death is a powerful motivator to monitor yourself for symptoms as directed. If he had no symptoms, he was not contagious.

I do. He's a doctor who has seen Ebola close up. He did not ignore a symptom like that and go bowling.

Obamas legacy is going to be remembered for ebola that he refused to control and a massive increase in globe Islamic extremism.

He started feeling bad on TUESDAY and went bowling on Wednesday.

I'm sorry he has Ebola and I appreciate that he went overseas to help combat it, but dayum - you'd think he'd isolate himself the minute he started feeling bad, knowing what he knows.

Then how do you explain his public outing for hours then less than eight hours later he's being rushed by police escorted ambulance to the hospital with a 103 degree temperature to the hospital where later it's confirmed he has Ebola? That simply does not add up whatsoever if what you say is true.

That's what they say. No symptoms one day, symptoms the next.

I have not read that he was ill Tuesday. And I agree that one would expect him to be more cautious. I think maybe these medical people think their space suits are better protection than they actually are.

The WP articles states that he had been "feeling sluggish since Tuesday."

And went bowling on Wednesday.
