Isn't that the same thing that they did with Thomas Eric Duncan? And why is there no reporting of what exactly what Sgt. Michael Monnig did have?
Given the underlying....smell I get from this outbreak reaching America scant weeks before our general election I have to wonder about the negative results of the test as well.
what are the chances this has all been neatly packaged...and served up to dissuade voters from visiting the polls?
Perhaps this time it wont be black panthers in front of certain polling places,...but rather troupes of Liberian Drummers...
Wondering how they quickly come to the conclusion that a rapidly mutating virus is not what the patient has?
Given the fear of Ebola infection, sounds like a few more days of observation were in order. It’s not only a positive Ebola test you’re looking for, it’s evidence of gradual changes in his white blood count (usually a decrease with viral infections with change in indices, the sub-groups), kidney function tests, start of a fever, GI symptoms and signs, bloodshot eyes, any evidence of slight blood in the urine or other bleeding. . the whole clinical picture. . . which he may not follow closely at home. Maybe they’ll check his blood count and do an Ebola test daily. . Would be interesting to know. .
Now give him a raise and a medal.
They didn’t test Duncon the first visit.
They tested his blood to see if he has the virus. He does not. What he probably has is the wonderful round of the common cold or maybe even the enter virus going around.
Since he does not have any ebola in his body why should he take up hospital space???
Some have to quarantined and others simply ‘tested’. I don’t get it. Can someone help me understand?
Very happy for this guy!
