Well, help me answer this question: "You tell me it's OK to go in this room with a woman from DRC who just was brought here from the airport by Lutheran Social Services with a 103 fever using regular PPE, right? Then how come the patients at Emory are in a special, multi-million dollar BL4 unit and everybody from CDC and on the staff are wearing spacesuits?"

Exactly. One look at how Dr. Brantly and Nancy Writebol were brought to Emory shows what utter crap they are shoveling now. I want to see the head of the CDC and all those "experts" in basic PPE treating infected and symptomatic patients. I may as look for unicorns.

BUT

We don't have enough of the right kind of PPE to isolate the "rule out Ebola" patients.

SO

If the CDC took the stance that special PPE was needed, THEN they would have to limit or stop sick arrivals from West Africa and DRC, and we know that THAT they will never do.

ERGO, the PPE we have has to be good enough, because "you go to war with the army you have".
