To state that “two nurses infect themselves” is a poor choice of words, and your response clearly shows that it is just based on assumptions-not direct knowledge of these people or investigation of the situation.
Very poor on your part to use those words in that fashion. I would expect better from someone who claims that everything they say can be proven in fact.

Let's put it this way. Acting as if the nurses were doing everything right, and Ebola is some supernatural entity that will get people regardless of what they do means that absolutely nothing will be done to correct the situation that led to the nurses infecting themselves in the first place.
It is obvious that they were not adequately trained--someone posted that they "had read the CDC recommendations", as if that constitutes proper training (it does not). I don't know about the hospital environment, but I can guarantee that in the lab, no one touches a single piece of equipment until they have trained and demonstrated adequate mastery.
I'll bet just about anything that when those nurses sue that hospital, first and foremost in their claim will be the lack of proper training. It is inexcusable how that hospital messed things up--first, by sending an extremely ill man home, which possibly led to his death--second, by not making sure that proper infection control measures were implemented until after a definitive diagnosis and the CDC showed up, leading to the secondary infections of two nurses. That hospital is going to be hammered in the courts, when the lawsuits come pouring in.
