The issue with assuming everyone has ebola is the availability of the PPE suits. Those are in short supply. Not to mention those hospitals are likely not airconditioned. No MD or nurse could survive a full ordinary shift in one of those in an unairconditioned environment.

If I was a doctor or nurse in that environment, I’d be wearing the protective gear, or I wouldn’t be seeing patients.

Wonder if they could break their shifts down into shorter periods with a rest period. Is there even the capacity to run a window air conditioner in one room where they could go to take a break and cool off?

If they can’t take the proper precautions then the only real solution is the EYAM choice.
