What a load of convoluted crap!

CYA* finger pointing is not helpful, Dr., especially when you cannot even say what protocol was breached.

The really scary part is that if ebola is harder to contain than predicted and “goes viral” (where did that expression originate?), under the “protocols”, healthcare workers will be the first to wiped out.

So....
Ebola can only be transmitted by contact and that is proved by lack of cases with non contact transmission.
When Ebloa is transmitted without any known contact, we must ignore that and presume there was contact. Thus, Ebola cannot be shown to be transmitted without contact.

Are the global warmist scientists moonlighting in biology?

So what happened to “we know how to deal with this” and the “tried and true” methods of containment?

"I think the fact that we don't know of a breach in protocol is concerning because clearly there was a breach in protocol. We have the ability to prevent the spread of Ebola by caring safely for patients."

OK then! If Dr. Frieden is so confident let him do his next presser in the isolation room of the newly discovered ebola patient.

Can the CDC be sued for giving false assurances? Let’s make this deadly disease worse by making sure everyone who lives faces a lawsuit.

How DARE he-the self-serving son of a bitch? ?? Does he actually believe any nurse treating an end-stage Ebola case would not follow PROTOCOL? ??

That’s the CDC PC scam- blame the victim.
Just like the nurse in Spain.
She touched her face after she took off her gear “improperly”?.

Well, Doctor, what else did she touch after she took off her gear “improperly” and wiped her brow or touched her eyes? A doorknob? Some hospital paperwork that got left on the des of the next shift worker? A pen? A vending machine or coffee pot or cup n the staff break room?? An elevator button? Her car steering wheel that a family member then touched?

Of course our 4000 troops in Liberia will never be exposed because they are professionals and follow he CDC routine “properly”.

Right?

CDC:
“The nurse screwed up.
She trusted us.”

Meanwhile, the is the first case of transmission in the US, and for me is a trigger event. I’ll be wearing gloves when shopping from now on. Once the first case appears outside TX, also an N100 mask.

His reasoning: “There MUST have been a breech in protocol, because otherwise, our protocol isn’t good enough.”

Posted at this thread:
2nd person who got ebola was wearing FULL PROTECTIVE GEAR as recommended by the CDC per presser!

What USED TO BE on the Web page of the CDC as of 8/2/14:

“In this guidance healthcare personnel (HCP) refers all persons, paid and unpaid, working in healthcare settings who have the potential for exposure to patients and/or to infectious materials, including body substances, contaminated medical supplies and equipment, contaminated environmental surfaces, or contaminated air. “

Transmission of Ebola virus from pigs to non-human primates

A study conducted in 2012 showed that Ebola was able to travel between pigs and monkeys that were in separate cages and were never placed in direct contact.


My opinion, based on these articles, is that Ebola can spread via the air but only in enclosed spaces. Once outside UV rays kill it.

Consider it a “breach” that we have not limited the entry of airline passengers from Ebola-infested African countries, or made serious efforts to control our borders. Our fearless leaders have put us in this position, and they are responsible for the outcome.

... they were promptly isolated at the hospital....

We need SEPARATE locations for Ebola patient isolation, otherwise our hospitals may not be able to handle ongoing healthcare needs. Kind of like MASH units.
