Oh ****
Nurse may have had symptoms of Ebola longer than first thought
Quote: 2 flights possibly at risk for Ebola
"We can't rule out (that Amber Vinson) might have had the start of her illness Friday," the day she flew to Ohio, a CDC official says

In this 31 page's of craziness has anyone commented on how conspiracy theory this all happens to be.
1 guy dies in dallas. 1 nurse happens to catch it out of like 70 or w/e. She happens to fly somewhere.
Sounds like the start of every zombie movie EVER!

2 nurses caught it, and apparently both of them should probably be terminated.

Hard to tell when you're joking or not, you being a hypocrite and all.

By that same logic we should terminate the director of the CDC. He failed in every aspect of public health agency. His agency failed to properly educate the nurses(public health education). His agency failed to administrate the hospital(public health administration) accordingly once the dilemma began. He failed to contain the infection to Duncan(epidimiology).
I fail to see how an agency which is supposed to be a public health agency should NOT be held accountable when they failed at all three major aspects of public health in an "isolated incident."
Blaming the nurses is scapegoat tactic at best, which circumvents the real issue of a failed healthcare system and an "isolated incident" for the CDC.

I disagree, on several counts.
They're not accountable for the disregard of duty of the healthcare at the nurse-patient level.
It's not a scapegoat at all, when they obviously failed at their job to conduct themselves in a safe manner.
The agency provided information, it wasn't their duty to administer the hospital, and they (again) cannot control what happens at the nurse-patient level.
I'll retract what I said a bit to clarify however as you seemed to miss the point I was making:
If the nurses were found to have been negligent in their duties and it turns out that they were responsible for getting infected (which by the accounts so far it seems that way) then yes, they should be terminated for failure to adhere to safety protocols.
The CDC doesn't go around wielding it's *** and taking over a healthcare system just when a rare virus breaks out, they gave out information and aided but they let the system do it's thing, you know: small government.
There was no justification or need for them to do so either, either medically or legally.
The "incident" happened at the nurse-patient level, not at the CDC level, lol...

So the nurses are at fault because the hospital refused to provide proper protocols?
Private hospital system as Burger mentioned. They aren't held to the same accountability as public healthcare systems when following CDC guidelines. So do we blame the employee? the employer? or lack of federal regulation? Seems a bit unfair to blame the employee when they may/may not have been provided proper resources to prevent infection.

Ok, let's assume for a moment that the hospital doesn't provide the standard sanitation protocols that are used just about everywhere: then yes, the hospital would be at fault, which is a potential scenario, however rather unlikely.
The more than likely scenario is: the person *** up, as they are human and it does happen, however in this case it may have very well cost them their life.

Was working fine for me, apparently the site I grabbed it from didn't like hotlinking, replaced it with a suitable albeit not the same replacement.

Nurses Blast Hospitals Over Ebola Safety
Quote: “Our nurses are not protected, they’re not prepared to handle Ebola or any other pandemics,” DeMoro said. “The protocols that should have been in place in Dallas were not in place and are not in place anywhere in the United States, as far as we can tell.”
Quote: Deborah Burger, co-director of the nurses union, read an account of hospital conditions she said had been given from nurses at Texas Health Presbyterian. The statement painted a portrait of carelessness, with nurses who interacted with Duncan wearing flimsy gowns and protective gear that left parts of their bodies exposed.
Seems to me the fault of the hospital and a failed healthcare system, not a negligent nurse. How are nurses supposed to provide effective infectious disease care when they aren't provided proper protocols and equipment?

In before nurses protests/strikes in Texas. You don't piss off the largest group of healthcare professionals in the country and not expect a fight.
By Jetackuu 2014-10-17 01:01:00
Yes, I know you keep posting those HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE sentiments from emotionally charged people, I ignore them like Nausi's ranting.
They're equipped to handle it, they have the equipment and basic infectious disease training covers far worse than Ebola...
Leaders of unions aren't really the experts when it comes to what is "adequate" nor was training not offered, it was up to the hospitals to give it, and if that's the case the blame lands on the hospital, but still basic ID training covers this ***, it's not that hard.

let's be real though, who would honestly be upset if ebola went rampant , evolved , produced zombies, and everyones dream came true?
By Jetackuu 2014-10-17 01:13:06
Got a chuckle out of that, but for serious: this isn't easy to contract, you have to do something rather negligent or get bodily fluids in your mouth/eyes/cuts/etc to get it, so unless they were getting sprayed in the face they didn't do a very good job. You don't need a full hazmat suit to properly contain this virus, despite popular belief.
It certainly wouldn't hurt though, but you know: budget :P

Makes me wonder if those nurses were the nurses we've all dreamed about our entire lives. They probably did dirty immoral unforgivable things to that patient and didn't wash their damn hands!

Hey Bacon, do you ever have male nurse fetishes?
Reuters.com said: A U.S. aid worker who was infected with the deadly Ebola virus while working in West Africa will be flown to the United States to be treated in a high-security ward at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, hospital officials said on Thursday.
The aid worker, whose name has not been released, will be moved in the next several days to a special isolation unit at Emory. The unit was set up in collaboration with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
CDC spokeswoman Barbara Reynolds said her agency was working with the U.S. State Department to facilitate the transfer.
Reynolds said the CDC was not aware of any Ebola patient ever being treated in the United States, but five people in the past decade have entered the country with either Lassa Fever or Marburg Fever, hemorrhagic fevers similar to Ebola.
News of the transfer follows reports of the declining health of two infected U.S. aid workers, Dr. Kent Brantly and missionary Nancy Writebol, who contracted Ebola while working in Liberia on behalf of North Carolina-based Christian relief groups Samaritan's Purse and SIM.
CNN and ABC News reported that a second American infected with Ebola was to be flown to the United States. CNN identified the U.S.-bound patients as Brantly and Writebol. Reuters could not independently confirm the reports.
Amber Brantly, the wife of Dr. Brantly, said in a statement: "I remain hopeful and believing that Kent will be healed from this dreadful disease."
Earlier on Thursday, White House spokesman Josh Earnest said the State Department was working with the CDC on medical evacuations of infected American humanitarian aid workers.
The outbreak in West Africa is the worst in history, having killed more than 700 people since February. On Thursday, the CDC issued a travel advisory urging people to avoid all non-essential travel to Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, the epicenter of the outbreak.
Brantly and Writebol "were in stable but grave" condition as of early Thursday morning, the relief organizations said. A spokeswoman for the groups could not confirm whether the patient being transferred to Emory was one of their aid workers.
CDC Director Dr. Thomas Frieden said in a conference call that transferring gravely ill patients has the potential to do more harm than good.
Meanwhile, the National Institutes of Health plans in mid-September to begin testing an experimental Ebola vaccine on people after seeing encouraging results in pre-clinical trials on monkeys, Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the NIH's allergy and infectious diseases unit, said in an email.
In its final stages, Ebola causes external and internal bleeding, vomiting and diarrhea. About 60 percent of people infected in the current outbreak are dying from the illness.
Writebol, 59, received an experimental drug doctors hope will improve her health, SIM said. Brantly, 33, received a unit of blood from a 14-year-old boy who survived Ebola with the help of Brantly's medical care, said Franklin Graham, president of Samaritan's Purse.
Frieden could not comment on the specifics of either treatment but said: "We have reviewed the evidence of the treatments out there and don't find any treatment that has proven effectiveness against Ebola."
