Check out the pictures of the costumes the nurses and physicians at this hospital reportedly will wear to treat an Ebola patient. If I were a nurse there, I wouldn’t go to work.
You strip naked to don these suits. No street clothes allowed at all.
Now that looks like less than what I saw on the workers over seas. Hair/head is exposed, the coverall appears thinner, and I didn’t see any protective boots and no sticky tape to tape around the gloves and pants legs.
Their usual protocol is to have a medical waste receptical right outside the doorway too, and that generally is right in the hallway - a double entry would be better.
In the level 4 labs, you don’t take off the gear, until you have gone through more than one decontamination areas including UV light.
I wouldn’t step foot inside a room with an Ebola patient in the gear that is pictured there, but then I am an advocate of an abundance of caution for diseases with 50% or more mortality and no real cure or vaccine for prevention.
