(United Press International) Ebola fears closed Texas and Ohio schools after it was discovered that the latest U.S. patient, Amber Vinson, flew from Cleveland to Dallas the day before treatment.
Vinson was on Frontier Airlines Flight 1143 one day before she reported to the hospital where she worked with symptoms of Ebola. She was immediately isolated for testing and the CDC began going through her contact list to monitor them for symptoms.
Ebola patients are only contagious when they begin to show symptoms, but health officials are still trying to contact everyone on the flight as a precaution.
