U can not make this stuff up...what are we third world?

Liberian man lied.

I remember when Universal Precautions were introduced. It seemed to me it was just a scam invented by lawyers to shift the blame for a tragedy onto the worker at the bedside.

[ColdOne]

Yes we are thanks to Eboma.

"The 3-day window of Sept. 28-30 is now being targeted by investigators for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as the key time"

F'n regular geniuses, the CDC are.

1980 AIDS scare all over again.

We are going to see a great number of those workers get this terrible virus. The pressure to stop the flights from West africans is now white hot.

Be thankful it was only 2 days. Many of the tests are being sent to the TX State Health Dept. Check out their website:

http://www.dshs.state.tx.us/lab/default.shtm

“After hours receipt of samples is temporarily unavailable. All packages transported through a courier (FedEx, UPS, LoneStar Overnight) will be accepted during regular business hours. Specimens submitted to Greyhound Bus Station-Austin will be picked up by laboratory staff as usual. Hand-delivered samples will be accepted only during regular business hours Monday - Friday (7:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.) until further notice.”

Speaking of tests, his lab work was sent through the hospital’s tube system. Whatever it’s called. Like how your money goes whooosh through the tube
from your bank’s outside drive thru to the inside tellers. That might be why the hospital was all but locked down a couple days ago. Is it back open?

This place must be run by the PCUSA. No one else could be this stupid.

Wonder when the Ferguson Freaks will start to use Ebola as a race card...”Hands up!...Don’t shoot...I have Ebola!”

[GeronL]

epic fail is an understatement

[Chgogal]

Did Duncan tell he had direct contact with a dying Ebola victim?

Third world-ers don’t get on airplanes as often as we do.

HORRIBLY reckless and irresponsible...............we’ve got this......right.

Here's what the CDC recommends for Ebola --> http://www.cdc.gov/vhf/ebola/hcp/infection-prevention-and-control-recommendations.html

"Gloves-Gown-Eye protection-Facemask", which is pretty much what my dentist is wearing every time he works on me. IMO, this is woefully inadequate for a pathogen like Ebola.

Dollars-to-donuts nobody from the CDC (or anywhere else) told Nurse Vinson not to fly.

While I’m remaining of the opinion this is a manufactured crisis (no less real, but not as bad as being hyped)...

...I fail to see the humor in using the word ‘incompetence’ to describe these workers, the CDC, hospital, etc.

From the CDC Head all the way down to the hospital...

...it’s “Criminal Negligence”. IMHO

Someone should buy a newspaper subscription for the staff’s break room, or put in a TV set on cable news, or something.
