WestVirginiaRebel Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 CBS New York: NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — In the wake of the first confirmed Ebola virus case in New York City, the states of New York and New Jersey have set up a new screening system that goes above and beyond the guidelines already set up by federal officials. As CBS 2’s Alice Gainer reported, no other states have yet set up increased screening procedures for Ebola. “We believe it’s appropriate to increase the current screening procedures from people coming from affected countries from the current (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention screening procedures),” Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Friday afternoon. “We believe it within the State of New York and the State of New Jersey’s legal rights.” Under the new rules, state officials will establish a risk level by considering the countries that people have visited and their level of possible exposure to Ebola. ________ No thanks to the doc and his little night out on the town...
