According to Vinson lawyer, this woman came into the store called Coming Attractions Bridal and Formal is to get a refund of clothes for her bridesmaid. Vinson asked for a refund of 500 dollars (approximately USD 6.3 million) on the grounds 'to minimize public anxiety'.

Vinson seems to have a bad feeling with his physical condition and to ask for a refund, he will not lose much if the wedding reception should be delayed because She was diagnosed by Ebola. Incidentally when visiting the store, She had suffered a mild fever and a few days later She was certainly suffering from Ebola. However, the refund request was rejected by the owner of the shop, Anna Younker.

But Younker never expected since Vinson arrival, She often heard people refer to the store as 'Ebola shop' so that they are afraid to go though only for looking around. Especially after Vinson confirmed suffering from Ebola, the local hospital immediately quarantined Kayla Litz (33), one of Coming Attractions employee who are pregnant while Vinson visited to the store.

Younker stays silent about the risks facing bankruptcy business management. "We have to exert best efforts to maintain this shop, but we can not eliminate the stigma," he continued.

"The whole dress incoming orders up to the date of January 31, 2015 we will soon finish, and the dresses we sell with no discounts of 50-80 percent," said Younker.
