Ebola In The US: Hospital Blames Computer Flaw For Dallas Patient Being Sent Home

A computer glitch at the hospital in Dallas, Texas, where the first U.S. Ebola patient was treated led to him being sent home after his initial visit, a move that was highly criticized given the patient's illness. Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital officials said a flaw in the electronic records system led to confusion between a nurse and the patient, Thomas Eric Duncan, but has been fixed, according to CBS News. However, health experts say it was too little, too late.
