Cop with possible Ebola

I'm sad to say that I'm having some doubts about this guy having Ebola.  I've seen so many disability scams lately that something is just not sitting right with me.

Now the question is: Why wasn't Monnig warned before entering the home completely without protection?


You are a cop and have to be warned about Ebola?  I mean you are delivering a quarantine order probably the only one you have ever seen and you have to be warned to take precautions?

The CDC told MailOnline today that the person is not one of the 48 contacts being monitored, and there is no indication of any direct contact with the initial patient, Mr Duncan.

The large-framed Monnig once worked as a sort of human punching bag for incoming Dallas County police recruits who learned how to use batons by beating Monnig.

At least that was his job until 2008, when Monnig was temporarily terminated from the police force after getting seriously injured during one of his brutal training sessions.

He was unable to work in active duty and the force was apparently not interested in giving him a desk job.

'Your job is basically to get beaten up by recruits,' CBS DFW said in a 2008 interview about his firing.

'Part of it is,' he replied. 'I want it to be as realistic as possible.'

Thanks in part to the 2008 broadcast, Monnig was rehired by the force.




Why would they temporarily terminate him if he got hurt on the job?

If I had been anywhere near that apartment and came down with the barfs and body aches, I would be scared too. 

The camera man that has it now got it from cleaning out a car that carried an ebola patient.

The virus isn't particularly hardy, but under some conditions it can live on surfaces up to six days.

Family of deputy: Ebola scare 'blown out of proportion'

FRISCO – These days, the mere mention of the word "Ebola" can cause panic.

Case in point: The event that unfolded Wednesday at a CareNow clinic in Frisco.

Michael Monnig, a sergeant with the Dallas County Sheriff's Office, had gone there for help with stomach pain. But, he also told the staff that he'd been involved in the case of Dallas' first Ebola patient.

Negative for Ebola.
