Thomas Duncan's Family To Be Released Tonight

This is good news, all around! They're free and it's amazing they didn't catch it! She and he slept in the same bed, even when he was sick, and the kids used the same bathroom and probably the same towels.

"Troh's (the mom) confinement was ending Sunday night, along with several friends, family and others who had contact with Duncan after he first became infectious. Ebola has a 21-day incubation period, and the people who interacted with Duncan after he first arrived in Dallas from Liberia will be in the clear.

Hi MK!

It certainly reinforces the comments that Ebola isn't that easy to get, and that's great.

I'm going out on a limb, but I'm feeling like this scare is going to end with the 2 nurses. I don't think it's the last time this will happen. But I don't think anyone else is going to become infected as a result of Duncan.

Good!! Hopefully this will ease some people's minds (including mine -- I'll admit!) about transmission of the disease.

I hope so, too. That's what I've been hoping and praying for since the news broke that they were infected!

I'm hoping and praying for it too, ladies. I am also reassured that it's not easily spread.
