That’s likely the child’s mother. The child is likely already infected but not symptomatic just yet.
Most of the family members who might have cared for the child under normal circumstances are likely dead or infected themselves.
If you came down with Ebola, knowing you’d cared for your children (changed diapers, prepared food for) and had no one else to care for them would you leave them at home by themselves?
Since in that part of the world they don’t trust the government or modern medicine I doubt that they know anything other than people are dying.....in certain areas it is being called a punishment by God
Where did you get these designations for the unit at Emory? Did you make them up?
I think I figured out where you got confused.
BSL designations don’t apply to the clinic, but Emory does train labs in how to make themselves BSL-2, 3, and 4.
“”BSL designations only apply to research laboratories. There is no equivalent grading system for health care facilities.””
“”In collaboration with the NIH (NIAID) supported Southeast Regional Center of Excellence for Biodefense and Emerging Infections (SERCEB), the Center for Public Health Preparedness and Research (CPHPR) has developed a comprehensive education and training program in BSL2, BSL3, and BSL4 laboratory safety practices. This training is conducted in a mock BSL3/4 laboratory at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia.””
