Amber Vinson, a 29-year-old nurse at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, and a fellow nurse tested positive to the virus after treating Liberian man Thomas Duncan, who later died. Ms Vinson cared for Mr Duncan and was immediately isolated after reporting a fever on Tuesday (local time), the department said. Ms Vinson took a Frontier Airlines flight from Cleveland, Ohio, to Dallas on October 13, just one day before she reported developing symptoms of the infection.

It rankles not so much because it's racist, or bigoted, but because it is so weirdly distant from the truth: a hostile defence of an idea of this country that never truly existed.
