What is proper "Ebola protocol"? I've been in healthcare for 15 years and I've never seen any.

So its safe to say that if you were treating an Ebola patient - you would probably breach protocol, not knowing it - correct?

Did the CDC director say the nurse breached protocol because she was a bad person and was lazy and didn't mind spreading the disease? If he just stated factually that it was breached I don't see how that's "blaming" anyone.

THE IMPORTANT POINT here did she contract the disease because protocol was breached, or did she contract it because existing protocols are not adequate? The question of who to "blame" is a media distraction.
