"Duncan is believed to have become infected after he helped a pregnant woman with the disease into a taxi in Liberia that was to take her to a hospital."

See the LA Times article posted at 14:48.

And there are just as many other news article that state he knew she had ebola. So that's not a dependable cite.

So what you're saying is that it isn't really clear, correct?

Fair enough. But the family, who is possibly alleging sub-standard care, knows the details, and knows he was offered and given an experimental drug because they had to give consent. So first glance for the family should look pretty damn good.

Unless he gave consent himself (could have been before he took a turn for the worse). Still, the family must know. I suspect they didn't think anything was wrong with his treatment until Jesse Jackson told them there was.

Absolutely agree. It's so frustrating…let the family grieve and keep them out of that bullshit.

From what I read (will try to look later for link) he was not responsive at the time and the family had to actually give the consent.

I am no Jesse fan, but this not true. The family has been expressing concerns about his care for at least 3-4 days.

Wrong. They were expressing concern that they could not visit him (and when they saw him on camera they decided they coudn't deal with it) and that information was not being given. Because we have HIPPA in the US and his "family" is actually not.

Nope. It's pretty clear that humans in general make poor, selfish decisions.

You morons, it DOES NOT MATTER if he knew he was infectious or not. He can kill millions of Americans either way.

Millions? No.

It seems like he didn't transmit it to anyone else. Chill.

Of course they do, in some cases. But clearly there are unanswered questions about what really happened in this particular case, as evidenced by the fact that even reputable media sources contradict one another.

We'll have to wait a few more weeks to find that out, won't we?
