The first rule of medicine is to do no harm.
You have do gooders, who wanted to help, knowing the risk.
Now, they get the disease, and want to come back to share their virus with the United States.
By traveling to Africa to treat Ebola, and then trying to come back here for treatment ,they wind up causing harm to the U.S.
I also do not understand what they were going to accomplish by going to Africa in the first place. A disease with a 60-90% death rate is going to kill most patients. An IV is not going to cure them.
Military surrounding the outbreaks and preventing infected people from leaving would have been the best.Quarantine was the only solution.
Leave them food outside the sick villages , and that is it.
if they want to be primitive and eat monkeys and bats, then they reap the consequences.
Now, we may be paying the price for do gooders and primitive people.
Patients need to boycott Emory. I would not go there as a patient when they are treating Ebola.
Maybe if they took a financial hit, they would not be so willing to accept an infectious disease that could spread to their staff, and possibly to the outside community.
I am willing to bet right now there is a lot of nurses and doctors at Emory who are now scared and pissed off because their administration made this decision.I hope they quit.,
If this disease was already here, i could understand their decision, but this disease is being imported. Not right.

I think ti’s time to start making them own up to their choices.

They want to go to Africa and be a savior, stay in Africa if you become infected.

You go eat monkey meat, don’t blame anyone else if you die.

Africans even now refuse to learn and refuse to stop eating bats and bush meant, which cause the disease to jump to humans.

We should contain it by keeping every sick person in Africa.

We should also set conditions for non-interference; they want our help, they can get out of our way and stop this clannishness.
