Some poor guy who just came back from Liberia is now the first official Ebola case in the the US!
This is not good...
He arrived on the Sept 19th, starting having symptoms on the 24th and finally checked into hospital on the 28th!
CDC says they are tracking down everybody he may have come into contact with.
