so they released her based on her detailed history? Why never keep her quarantined longer for the proper test?

 

not enough hospital beds ah?

USA is a first world country, but being big, not all hospitals have a detailed plan on how to detect cases. The case of the Liberian who went to the US with ebola:

 

Cities like Dallas and New York are home to enclaves of Liberians and other West African newcomers, making it all the more likely that visitors from West Africa could be headed there.

 

In Dallas, the infected traveler, Thomas Eric Duncan,went to the emergency room on Sept. 25.He told one nurse he had just come from Liberia, but that critical fact was ignored, and he was sent home with antibiotics instead of being put into isolation and tested.

 

The hospital’s epidemiologist, Dr. Edward Goodman claims “we have had a plan in place for some time now for a patient presenting with possible Ebola.” Not a very good plan, obviously. After leaving the hospital, Duncan grew sicker over the next few days, and returned by ambulance. The emergency staff who originally treated him and the three ambulance personnel are now under observation for Ebola.

He may have missed out to mention that there is another strain of deadly disease happening called Entrovirus. That is more deadly than ebola.

 

Go google.
