Protocols can exist, but overburdening and exhaustion have a tendency to produce a weakening of one’s ability to accurately carry them out. I am well aware of what the CDC is saying, but it doesn’t appear to me at all that they even so much as care about what the real truth is on ebola. These people are extremely delusional and fringe or not, they are using supposedly trustworthy sources to throw information around. The problem I have is that people sit around talking about how the rules are so perfect, while sitting in an ivory tower.
Of course people get tired and so forth while using the PPE, especially in hot climates.
The issue that I see with the CDC is that Dr. Friedan is a total nerd, so that even though he communicates the correct information, people don't want to believe him. He appears to be used to speaking to highly technical audiences, not the general public. And the general public is not familiar with scientists.
