According to Dallas County Health and Human Services, officials have gathered the names of additional individuals who have been in contact with those 12 to 18.”

UPDATE: Liberia to prosecute Texas Ebola patient. “As health officials scramble to determine the number of people who may have had contact with Thomas Eric Duncan, the Liberian man currently being treated for Ebola in Dallas, Texas, Liberian officials have taken the aggressive step of announcing that they plan to prosecute Duncan. The government alleges that Duncan lied about having come into contact with someone affected by Ebola during an airport screening.” If so, he should be prosecuted.
