Is that legit? Don't see it anywhere else.

All I've been hearing Tom Friedman say since Duncan died is " we're monitoring the forty-something healthcare workers". If the CDC has been monitoring them, how did the lastest one get on an airplane? Someone please explain....
Monitoring = "hey if you get a fever for any reason in the next 14 days, call this 800 number. Thanks."
People are not being shuffled into camps or biodomes or whatever the internet thinks is happening. You're more likely to catch the chicken pox and more likely to die from HIV. If everyone would just calm down, that'd be great.
We should be more worried about Malaria, WNV, Dengue fever, rabies, Influenza, HIV, Rotavirus... I could go on and on. Those are all infectious disease that kill FAR MORE individuals and some of those examples are much more virulent and infectious through means other than direct bodily fluid contact (such as air borne or mosquito borne diseases). Although a disease with this mortality rate should be taken seriously, this disease is over hyped by the media and will never be more of an "epidemic" than all of the contagious diseases I just listed.
You'd better be more worried about what might happen in Detroit on Sunday!
I know, don't remind me....
