It's a good point but we have flu vaccines and they do work. The problem for many of us who work in healthcare is that this ebola got through extremely tight precautions. And no one knows how.

We know respiratory precautions work for the flu.

Why didn't the precautions they took in Liberia work? There were three nurses who died, several physicians...

It's a matter of feeling in control about it. I am expecting someone working at Emory to come down with ebola because there is something new and different about this one.

There are some pictures and stories of the medical team not wearing their protective gear. Pretty difficult to wear that stuff in the heat and no ac.
