Whether or not they are trying to "cover their behinds", childrens' health could possibly be involved (as well as staff).

Would you perhaps feel differently if your child attended this school?

This staffer wasn't even on the same flight as the nurse.

I think the school is going waaaay overboard and I would certainly send my child to the school w/o the so called sterilization.

If you have a child with a compromised immune system it is not going overboard.

If I had a child with a compromised immune system, I would be more worried about the illness that has already killed several children.

I personally think it's an over-abundance of caution but I don't have a problem with the precautionary steps being taken. Although it may have been more helpful if they knew the staff member had been on the same plane first. If it wasn't the same plane then why the upset.

I heard that it was 5 schools. As already said if it were your child attending those schools wouldn't you want them closed and cleaned? What is the alternative to ""going overboard""? Possibly getting sick with ebola?

I also just heard on ABC news two additional issues. A bridal shop that Nurse Vinson visited while in Cleveland has closed.

A Yale University doctoral student returned home after a research trip to Liberia. He was not in contact with any ebola patients. He didn't feel well and has a low-grade fever. He is now in isolation as ""an abundance of caution"" while awaiting test results to be ready in 24 hours. Don't you think it's better to be careful?

It was the same plane...but a DIFFERENT flight.

The staffer & the nurse were not in the same plane at the same time.

It's a "feel good" action, it will accomplish nothing but it's worth it to give the impression that they are on top of the situation and protecting their students. And since this is cough, cold and flu season; it will keep some clueless parents from freaking out if Susie or Johnny get the sniffles. The misinformation and false information and outright lies circulating are mind boggling.
