Just great that a major hospital has basically shut down their ER

Shut down the ER and you have basically shut down the hospital. Most inpatient admissions occur through the ER.

So while the CDC has said our health care system is capable of handling Ebola the reality is for each hospital that handles Ebola the possibility exists that it will take the hospital offline.

Exactly. Our health-care system cannot function with any real ebola outbreak. How long before doctors and nurses and orderlies stop showing up for work? Will the government force them to work?
