According to Dr. Linda Mobula who treated Dr. Brently in Liberia, the MSF protocol is different from CDC’s Ebola protocol. MSF has an extra step that you spray health care workers with chlorine to kill the virus on surfaces which can survive for a couple of days. Dr. Mobula was interviewed by Greta tonight. If you missed it, you may want to DVR it later tonight or early morning. It was awesome.
That is a seriously good idea. I should figure out a way to communicate this suggestion to the authorities.
You would think that would be the common sense thing to do. Most of the large European nations and Saudi Arabia have stopped incoming West African flights.
“That is a seriously good idea. I should figure out a way to communicate this suggestion to the authorities.”
Thanks... My suggestions at this point are in public domain. I would be pleased and honored if it helped. Go for it, I’m too old at this point to try to sell the idea.
Strange we haven’t heard a peep out Jesse since day one. Nothing about Louise, either. Here’s to the judge’s wife having good aim with ashtrays.
Current US Isolation Unit Beds
2? - Emory, Atlanta
3 - The Care and Isolation Unit in Missoula, Montana, opened in 2005 by the National Institutes of Health to serve lab workers at Rocky Mountain Laboratories, hasn’t yet served an infectious disease patient, only a handful with tuberculosis or contagious bacterial infections. The rooms look like everyday hospital rooms—white, sterile, a TV and window for entertainment. That’s because St. Patrick Hospital retrofitted three of its ICU rooms to make the unit.
10 – Omaha, Nebraska Medical Center run twice yearly drills with decontamination at their hospital’s 10-bed biocontainment unit. Opened in 2005. Has never had an infectious disease patient. Prior to Dr. Sacra in Sept., the unit had only briefly housed one patient with malaria five years ago. Malaria does not require quarantine.
7 - NIH opened a seven-bed Special Clinical Studies Unit at the Clinical Research Center in Bethesda to replace it. Its four patient rooms (two doubles and a single). Bethesda unit has only served a patient with a drug-resistant bacterial illness. “It can handle the highest level of respiratory virus, but Ebola isn’t even spread that way,” said Richard Davey, deputy clinical director of NIH’s Division of Clinical Research.
? - US Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) – Ft. Detrick, Maryland.
Now that’s the kind of innovative thinking that the CDC drones would never be capable of.
The CDC is just like all Federal Government Agencies - there sole obligation is to promote and grow the agency.
When I posted the changed clown graphic to you yesterday, I didn’t mention that I don’t mind if you use it. I wasn’t trying to rip off your graphic. I was only trying to enhance it. Don’t credit me for the change. Just have fun with it like I am if you like.
Take care.
