Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell said the U.S. government did not sufficiently respond to the Ebola crisis in the United States.
“We could have done much better [on] the oversight of the the implementation of the protocols,” Burwell told NBC’s Matt Lauer on Wednesday.
Burwell said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention sent a “full team” to Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas, where Thomas Eric Duncan was diagnosed and treated for Ebola.
Burwell lamented that the implementation of protocols to treat Ebola patients and protect health care workers could have been more robust.

They should err on the side of caution rather then reassuring everyone that nothing is wrong and they can handle something never before seen here. Idiots!

Don't sweat it Sylvia Burwell.
The nation as a whole could have done a much better job than re-electing a certified-57-states-stupid, swaggering, incompetent, clown as POTUS.

Obviously CDC should have explained more clearly to the Ebola virus the protocols it was supposed to follow.
To: blam
No SHIT! I’m sure glad we always figure this stuff out after the fact when the information has been known for decades.
