our (and their) advanced Ebola clinics

our advanced ebola clinics????

These folks aren't being put in 'advanced Ebola clinics' - but in regular hospitals - in regular isolation wards. We can't even get a handle on MRSA yet - and it's not an airborne disease - which they say Ebola now is.

Granted, they SHOULD be treated in Ebola Clinics - but those are in Africa and THEY couldn't contain it.

If you know of any 'Ebola Clinics, strictly for treating and containing Ebola in the US - I stand corrected.

We have four special isolation units in the U.S..

The one at Emory was put together 12 years ago for the CDC, which is just down the street from Emory, and I think it is OK to call it an Ebola treatment clinic when Ebola is the disease at hand.

“Atlanta Hospital Deemed 1 of Safest for Ebola Care”

“Emory’s infectious diseases’ unit was created 12 years ago to handle doctors who get sick at the CDC. It is one of about four in the country equipped with everything necessary to test, treat and contain people exposed to very dangerous viruses.

In 2005, it handled patients with SARS, which unlike Ebola can spread when an infected person coughs or sneezes.”
