The Texan nurse diagnosed with Ebola has received a blood transfusion from survivor Dr Kent Brantly, reports claim. It is the third time Dr Brantly has donated blood to Ebola victims after medics discovered he had the same blood type as previous patient Dr Nick Sacra and NBC cameraman Ashoka Mukpo, who is still being treated.
Incredibly, nurse Nina Pham, 26, has also matched with Brantly and today received a transfusion of his blood in a move that doctors believe could save her .
Pham has been in quarantine since Friday after catching the disease from 'patient zero' Thomas Eric Duncan - the man who brought the deadly virus to America.
Brantly is believed to have traveled to Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, where Pham worked, to make the donation on Sunday night. Today, Pham's condition was described as 'clinically stable'.

Type O-negative blood is universal donor. It is also called 'babies blood' because it is so mild.
Incubation is 2 to 21 days.
O- is universal donor. O+ is a very common type. AB+ is a universal recipient. That’s the simplistic view. The MN groups and others get considered in a type and cross match.
Per WFAA local news the “only contact” is in isolation and not showing any symptoms and her dog was removed from the apartment just this afternoon. The City will be caring for the dog....so far no talk of euthanizing it. Nina has been asking for about her pet since she was admitted.
The virus remains in semen for 90 days after the patient recovers. Saliva, blood, feces and vomit carry the virus.
O- is universal donor. Can’t give positive blood to negative recipient.
He sure does look like Shane.
Friedan needs a shot of Ebola reality like Shane got. Friedan is a stooge.
..The common welfare...
Perry would be smart to keep this in Dallas, and all the experts coming here than dispersing all the victims to the four points of wherever.
Zero signed a plan for all the Ebola-affected nation’s citizens to be given expedited Visas into the US, and also lawyer services on Aug 14. DFW just happens to have a 10K strong Liberian community, with likely 40% on overstayed VISAs.
Dallas has the heightened awareness and all new cases flying in will try to go there, now that Presby’s an Ebola Ward.
Dallas folks will need to be extremely vigilant about risk until this burns out... and the flare-up just started today.
With that 10K Liberian community, everybody will be going to Dallas by hook or by crook, not those far-flung Level 4 decontam sites. Kill it in one place instead of chasing it all over the nation.
I had no idea about the Liberian being that large in DFW.
Perry had better do the right thing and if includes telling Obola and the Feds where to shove it, the better.
Yep.
Was on the way to work when I realized what the commotion was ahead.
FIVE satellite trucks, about 20 cameras on bi-pods, crowds of reporters, 5-6 cop cars and one helicopter circling the area.
So, have you been driving out of the area for groceries and such?
Because I sure have and when I woke up Sunday I was damn glad I had been.
Ten bucks says she was going to the Krogers right there on Mockingbird.
.
O neg is the universal donor.
If this keeps up, that poor man is going to look like a prune.
Either did I.
The comanche ranged from TX, OK, KS, NM, CO, but when they consolidated in Williamson County, the Texas Rangers were able to surround them and end them permanently in 1873.
Same situation.. pick them off one by one as they run to their families in Dallas, which zero’s Aug 14 expedited VISA program gave the ebola-raged countries special consideration if they had family in the US.
This was planned, by the way. We’re just going to have to go Texas Ranger on this until it’s stamped out. Brantly is donating blood to Nina.. she will be able to donate once she kicks it. Then her boyfriend can donate, once he kicks it.
All in all, if this had to happen, which it didn’t, Dallas is the best place, the best chance of ending it quickly.
On August 15, 2014 the Obama Administration sneakingly expedited visas from the Ebola effected countries.

obviously Nina Pham is not a white cracker, lol
There are no words.
At this rate we won’t last another 26 months.
zero’s hate for American Whitey blinds him to why and how American Whitey has kept this place together as long as it has. Most of us have European blood, we know how to be ruthless when necessary. We haven’t been like that since WWII, but foist an immediate threat on Americans, you better stand back. And hope you haven’t been antagonizing the sleeping Giant relentlessly.

One of my brothers called me this evening and said almost the exact same thing. It’s a certainty.
