We observe the custom now
Snyderman said she believed his exposure to the virus happened sometime before he started working with the NBC crew, since it is usually eight to 10 days before the first symptoms are seen.
"The good news is this young man, our colleague, was admitted to the clinic very, very early," she said. "I spoke with him today. He's in good spirits. He's ready to get home — of course, appropriately concerned. But he will be airlifted out soon."
She said that neither she nor the other three NBC employees has shown any symptoms or warning signs of Ebola infection.
"We observe the custom now, which is to not shake hands, to not embrace people, to wash our hands with diluted bleach water before we enter the hotel," she said. "We dip our feet in bleach solution."
She said she and the rest of her crew present little chance of giving it to anyone, unless they get sick.
