Dr. Ben Carson Says He Wouldn't Have Brought Ebola Infected Missionaries to US

You are the one lying, we don't have any advanced treatment in Africa. The clinic at Emory was built especially for this, to treat CDC researchers who get infected with Ebola and other infectious diseases, and for those CDC and others, who catch it working outside of the U.S.

Serious Communicable Disease Unit (Isolation Unit) in Emory University Hospital

""Emory University Hospital has a special isolation unit, called a Serious Communicable Disease Unit, that was set up in collaboration with the CDC to house CDC scientists and others who have traveled abroad and become exposed to infectious diseases. This unit has unique equipment and infrastructure that provides an extraordinarily high level of clinical isolation with very different capabilities than are normally provided to isolate patients in other hospitals. It is one of only four such facilities in the country.""

Your fear and panic has you wanting to forbid our Americans working on the front lines of Ebola, including our military and CDC employees from coming home to be treated at our special facilities for that very purpose.

Ok. You don’t make sense, I don’t argue with stupid people. Goodbye!

[ansel12]

Care to point out what didn’t make sense in post 61?

[Shimmer1]

I should have said “I don’t discuss anything with stupid people”

If you don’t see your own non sequitur (sp?) then I’m not going to hold your hand.

If 200 people with ebola showed up in the ER of Emory, what would their healthcare techniques look like 2 or 3 weeks later?

[ansel12]

Since they have a special mission, I think your mass Ebola outbreak scenario would be about treating people in regular hospitals. Starting first with our 20 special isolation hospitals perhaps.

""Among those facilities is a network of quarantine stations, where the CDC can legally detain anyone who may have been exposed to cholera, diphtheria, infectious tuberculosis, plague, smallpox, yellow fever, SARS, new strains of flu, or—relevantly—viral hemorrhagic fevers like Ebola.""

[Black Agnes]

So if a couple hundred cases showed up at EACH of those centers every week, what would their treatment conditions look like a month or two later?

[ansel12]

What if we all had flying bicycles?

Ben Carson was wrong.

[Black Agnes]

Who mentioned carson?

I asked a question.

You post pictures of deplorable conditions and assume it’s always been that way.

I asked what you thought OUR medical institutions would look like several months later if ebola victims began showing up at the ER in the hundreds per week?

[ansel12]

Remember Ben Carson?

You have gotten so chatty and wanting to start getting into hypotheticals that you are drifting away from the thread.

[Black Agnes]

I never mentioned Ben Carson.

Why are you failing to answer my question.

What, specifically, do you think our medical institutions would look like after several months of an ebola outbreak?

You are the very one posting pictures of deplorable conditions with the assumption that it’s always been like that.

We have precisely 4 centers that can provide the healthcare that Brantley is receiving right now. If 100 people with Ebola presented at Emory ER over the course of 2 or 3 weeks, what sort of healthcare would they receive?

Your argument seems to be, posting those pictures, ‘their healthcare system collapsed because of ebola, they deserve to get ebola’.

But another question. Do you think the treatment center Brantly was directing had the same conditions as the ones in the picture you keep posting? Why or why not?

[McGruff]

Very good point. We could have setup an area to threat them in over there or some deserted island. But that would be racist.

[McGruff]

It's too late now.

[Captain Peter Blood]

Actually we can take an island and set up a comprehensive Treatment Center and keep it isolated.
I think they finally closed down the Plum Island facility, no one really knows exactly what the research done there was but I keep thinking it was more than research on farm animals.

[Captain Peter Blood]

Cremation would make sense here.

[ansel12]

You aren’t even making sense on this thread about Ben Carson.

Would you like to link the posts of mine where I am doing what you just claimed? Your post doesn’t reflect my posts at all.

“with the assumption that it’s always been like that.” huh?

“Your argument seems to be, posting those pictures, ‘their healthcare system collapsed because of ebola, they deserve to get ebola’.” huh?

And drop the hypotheticals, I’m not interested in long chats with you about whatever you can dream up.

[Black Agnes]

You are the one that keeps posting pictures of the PPE gear drying on sticks in the sun.

I asked you what you thought OUR healthcare system would look like after several months of an ebola outbreak of several hundred in a major metro area.

You refuse to answer the question.

Telling.

For example, right there.

That’s what one of these rural clinics looks like prior to an ebola outbreak.

[ansel12]

Sorry, but in your anger and determination to argue, you just aren’t making sense.

Ben Carson was wrong, it was right to bring these two American Ebola missionaries home for treatment, at the center designed for that purpose.

[Black Agnes]

What do you think our healthcare system would look like 2 or 3 months after an ebola outbreak of several hundred per major city?
