They did not get Ebola because it is spread by close contact, not aerosols. None of them had prolonged close contact.
BTW, he was not at his most infectious until he was close to death. Ebola becomes more infectious as the disease progresses.
I do have to say that there is a story of a doctor who’s pregnant wife died. He thought she died from pregnancy complications, but it turns out that it was ebola.
This disease behaves completely different in a pregnant body. The horror stories of what is does to a fetus are beyond description.
No. You do not know for sure that a pregnant woman has ebola.
I am frustrated that people on this same thread are mocking the nephew and asking, ‘where’s he get a medical degree’ then blaming Duncan for not giving an accurate diagnosis for a specific situation that has fooled actual doctors.
With that said, is the story even true? The nephew is saying that the whole pregnant woman story never happened. Where did that story originate?
One final thought: After witnessing the clown show in Dallas surrounding everything about this case, is it really beyond the realm of possibility that Duncan’s illness was mismanaged? *Everything* was mismanaged. Honestly, I can’t think of ONE thing that the officials did *right* in this case.
So we’re supposed to believe that, although they screwed up *everything* *else* they were Johnny on the spot when it came to actually treating the patient....
Right.
“I was repeating what someone else in a thread had said..”
I thought that might be the case, TN.
All accounts say his plane left Monrovia on Sept 19th, arrived DFW after stops in Brussels & DC.
I’d like to know when he bought his tickets.
The Liberian Observer had some interesting comments from Duncan’s boss and co-workers.
Links to a coupla LO articles in this Breitbart report from almost weeks ago:
The DMN has apparently shut off comments to Weeks’ op-ed.
Worse still, they disappeared the existing comments.
He left work suddenly in the middle of the day on Sept 4 and said nothing to his boss..he never went back to work nor contacted his boss to explain..
what was he doing until Sept 19...lying low while his relatives went out and bought him that ticket etc ???
All accounts say his plane left Monrovia
