I guess that was a bad choice of words on my part. I agree, I thought they were being watched. I read somewhere she was there planning her wedding. My questions would be...where did she go when she was there. The venue....bridal shop....the caterer...flower shops...restaurants. What a flipping mess.
“When did she fly to Cleveland...”
I think I read she flew there on the 10th.
Q: Can Ebola be spread on airplanes?
A: No, it is only spread to medical workers wearing protective bio-hazard suits.
That sure puts it into perspective!
From her pinterest looks like she is planning/fantasizing about a wedding.
I wonder how her fiance is?
Good post and even more grist for this mill:
Let’s say she did indeed have a fever during the flight and this is why the CDC is trying to contact everyone on her flights. Well...
...haven’t we been told the vehicle of transmission are bodily fluids? But now, someone who has a fever can transmitt the virus? How are the general population of people supposed to differentiate between those with a fever and those without? Shoukd we all carry thermometers around, testing everyone we meet?
And what’s the “threat” anyway with a mere fever? Where are the copious amounts of bodily fluids that are supposed to be the fomite here, when someone just has a fever? Their sweat? Is sweat now a fomite? Because while that might still techically not be “airborne” that changes the game IMO.
If sweat can transmitt this then how exactly are people supposed to guard against that, an invisible odorless liquid that can remain on a surface for hours?
It’s one thing to say, “stay away from people puking all over the place or bleeding out their eyes” but entirely ANOTHER thing to say, “watch out for someone’s sweat”! Especially in a common space like an airport or a train station or a bus station!
Sheesh, ban the dang flights already! This PC crap is literally going to kill us!!
Thanks!
Can you trust the people who couldnt do a web site with containing Ebola? (pass it on)
She could have been infected at his first visit to the hospital. That would move the infection date up 8 days or so.
What we don't know about these nurses is their exposure to Duncan. Was it only during his second visit and hospital stay? Was it only during his first visit. How many other staff were similarly exposed?
Why was not every one who came in contact with Duncan during either visit quarantined, or at least made aware of the risks and what to do / not do? That hospital has obvious incompetence and ought to be shut down, put under new management, and turned into an Ebola-only hospital / clinic.
