Sorry, but I’ve seen the original recommendations provided by CDC for dealing with Ebola patients. Following their PPE recommendations would almost guarantee contracting the disease. Among other interesting things, it recommended taking off globes first and then removing the rest of your equipment with bare hands!

What they posted was a generic recommendation for how to wear PPE. Inexcusable negligence.

BTW, the nurse may have gotten the best possible care, but she became sick because of the negligence of the hospital. Heck, they could have called me and I’d have suggested better protocols than what they told these women to do!

Though it’s not like the nurses were kept isolated and unable to look up proper procedures for protecting themselves.

Sorry, I don’t believe this...even for the idiotic Obama regime bureaucrats. This sounds more like an urban legend. Do you have a link?

I am not sure if this is legit, but the Youtube user Bourbon cowboy showed how water, and potentially blood, vomit, and other materials, if in large enough quantities, will seep through most standard nurse attire. It’s pretty disturbing. If they were going to bring in possible infectees they should have had proper preparations to accomodate this. Heck, they should have placed people coming into the hot zone under quarantine just to be sure that they did or didn’t have ebola.
