Youngor Jallah was the last relative to see her stepfather Thomas Duncan before he was taken to the hospital in an ambulance and diagnosed with Ebola. Ms. Jallah says she only learned about that diagnosis on the news. She also says health officials have not been clear about what she should do now, and whether she is allowed out of her home. Ms. Jallah spoke exclusively about her fears with John Berman.

i'm a bit disturbed by some of the reporting today AC, in relation to the cleaning of the apt in Dallas where the Ebola patient stayed. Your story suggests that children nearby are at risk by the mist from the cleaning chemicals. Take a closer look, this is (a) not true, and (b) incites fear. It seems you have a responsibility to educate people on the transmission of Ebola, including the information that it does not live very long outside of a human host, therefore living in the apt for several days, then being in the mist from the cleaning chemicals? Irresponsible reporting it seems to me.
thanks. JB
