Dallas Ebola Worker on Cruise Ship
Two Dallas health workers have already fallen ill with Ebola, but another who may have had contact with the disease is now on a cruise ship. The unnamed employee of Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, where a Liberian man named Thomas Duncan died, has agreed to be kept in an isolated cabin on the ship, which is in Belize, where authorities are refusing to allow a passenger evacuation.

On Thursday, 75 hospital employees were asked to sign legal documents agreeing not to go to public places or use mass transit.
