YES.
DOCTORS have been fooled by pregnant women with Ebola. The virus attacks the oxygen/blood-rich placenta and liquifies the fetus. It’s horrible and the symptoms are NOT typical. The mortality rate for the fetus is 100% and, for the mom, 96-99.5%.
If a doctor can’t tell, how can the layman?
BTW (And this is where I am in a RAGE) the CDC has YET to acknowledge these facts and to warn that pregnant doctors and nurses should NEVER be NEAR a suspected Ebola patient.
Their incompetence makes me SICK.
Marie, we are talking about different issues. My point is that the pregnant woman’s family, with Duncan’s help, was trying to get the woman committed to an Ebola ward. They weren’t turned away because the drs thought the woman was having a miscarriage but because there was no room in the ward. A couple of days later, while Duncan was still living at the same apt., the woman’s brother [who had helped carry her] died of Ebola. Her brother wouldn’t have died from complications resulting from a miscarriage.
