"Is their anything more important than ME?"
Since Obama wants to fly them here, I think he should help treat them.
If you want to improve your chances of getting some 0b0la for free, vote ‘rat in November.....
Putting Ebola patents in hospitals that have never handled such cases before are bond to make life threatening mistakes do to inexperience and lack of rote training in handling PPE and patent care...
They should send all flights with people from west Africa to Gitmo and make them wait 21 days. It will be the new Ellis island. Now if we can seal the southern border?
“Hello, I am unable to show up for work today due to explosive diarrhea. Not my explosive diarrhea. The Ebola patient’s explosive diarrhea and then the explosive diarrhea I will get from treating him.”
No nurses called in at the hospital in Dallas.
Meanwhile the Ebola Czar remains in Witness Protection.
And THIS is why Obama has called up the Nat Guard and reserve. They can be ORDERED to go in and treat them, when the civilian nurses refuse.
And given what I've read I don't blame him...or the staff at Bellevue.
My mother, who is an RN in a hospital, says the day they bring in an ebola patient into her hospital is the day she quits. She says there is no way they are prepared to treat one and she will NOT expose herself and her family.
I wonder if these (and future) nurses who probably voted for Obama will finally see him for the evil he is.......or just stay clueless and agenda driven and blame Republicans?
Friend’s wife is in Nursing Management. She has said many times that hospitals aren’t ready for this, and that it is a JOB, not a crusade for most of the nurses.
They aren’t going to risk killing their own families over this.
Her Daily Show-watching husband changed his tune on this when she piped up.
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
"Is their anything more important than ME?"
No, nothing.
Oh wait, I thought you said 'impotent'!
Cannot blame them one bit.
My guess is that the all vote dem.
It sounds like that hospital is not ready, like the hospital in Dallas was not ready.
Shouldn’t they be trained on infectious disease control? Shouldn’t they have drills on it?
Just because we know there is an Ebola outbreak, and that there is a real (but small) chance an Ebola patient could show up anywhere, does not mean that this is the only time hospitals should be prepared for a highly infectious and pathogenic disease. The fact is, people can bring a highly infectious and pathogenic exotic disease into any hospital at any time. It happens, and will keep happening, unless we stop worldwide travel.
I hate to say it, but it is NOT a strong argument for state’s rights and autonomy when private and state hospitals are incapable of caring for a patient with such a disease unless the experts from the federal government come to take care of things for them. It’s just like Katrina and New Orleans again.
Yeh I don’t blame them. These nurses are not trained CDC Ebola experts. Not that the CDC is looking too expert at the moment anyway,. I wouldn’t go near those patients.
wooden shoe?
Blaming Nina Pham for contracting ebola after she followed CDC protocol certainly didn’t go over well with Bellevue staff, and most people wouldn’t consider getting to meet the President after getting out of quarantine a fair consolation prize.
