Lengthy but informative. I, for one, appreciate her efforts to educate those of us who do not have medical training.
The book THE HOT ZONE is also a must-read on the topic.
From the blogger’s “Addendum”:
...the point of my article is to take what the uneducated (in a medical sense) journalists say, what the talking heads on TV say, and then let you know what the people say who are on the front lines.
Impressive knowledge, even for a nurse.
I think we should send all infected persons to DC for quarantine.
I think we may be looking at mobile treatment vans or busses which give the victims morphine and then a cardiotoxin with stops at crematoriums along the route. There is no other way to deal with this from a public health policy as it is currently being carried out.
I think Obama is evil in it's pure form. I think his summer "African Leaders Summit" mapped out this whole thing to bring it to America in order to force western nations to a state of chaos and economic ruin. Social Justice, remember? In Obama's evil world, the fix to Ebola in Africa is to spread it to white people on other continents. Obama's goal is to never fix anything, but to "manage it" for social change or social justice. Never let a good crisis go to waste (or disease).
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
+1
And Pelosi, Reid, and Obola should pose for photo-ops with the patients just to show how compassionate they are.
Someone get Duncan’s cell phone and email records. His banking records too. He was a sponsored visitor to America. I’d bet big on it.
According to latest research, early on in the infection, there is a very high viral load in saliva. So coughing and sneezing could be spreading the virus, before a person is really symptomatic. After a person is “cured”, they can still shed the virus from tears, breast milk and semen. In semen, it can be shed for 3 months. Outside he body, the virus can be viable in semen, for 70 hours. So why are the doctor and nurse, supposedly cured, not quarantined for 3 months? http://jid.oxfordjournals.org/content/196/Supplement_2/S142.full
Because they are white. Because they are intelligent, loving Christians.
Interesting, the timing of this. And now the family (aren’t they ILLEGAL ALIENS?) plans to sue. What a joke. Duncan lied to get here. How much is the airfare for a flight such as the one (of several) that Duncan took to get here?
It is common to suit up better than that when working with benign irritants (insulation, painting, sanding, etc) but when dealing with a deadly level 4 bio-hazard, you barely wear more than a chicken processor?
Duncan was an admitted ILLEGAL alien. On his inpatient paperwork, he stated he moved here from Africa (not visiting from Africa as the MSM is reporting).
I wish I could disagree....
$4,000 from what I understand to be true.
Yipes! Prayers for that woman.
Yipes! Prayers for that woman.
Even for a nurse?? What an insult.
