If we can assume that infection control procedures have been improved at most, if not all, hospitals across the U.S., I like to see the stats on staph and MRSA from here on out.

Hopefully, there would be a precipitous drop in all-cause infections in hospitals and walk-in clinics.

ISIS + Ebola is a dangerous combination. Talk about unstoppable terror. How do we combat that?

Really, intentional sabotage with something like this is a frightening thought.

No need to panic. Barack has this under control along with everything else.

My point is for the people that are saying frick the cdc for this newest worker getting it. How do we know she wasn't infected in Duncan's visits before it was known he had Ebola?

If she didn't know he had it and contracted it - that's bad.

If she did know and contracted it, that's bad.

I'm not sure which is worse, from a terror standpoint.

It matters because you decided to randomly say frick the cdc earlier in the thread, when they likely weren't even involved when this girl got infected.

They're both bad. That wasn't really my point though.

That's really quite mind boggling. She never should have been allowed to leave.

ETA: And she was asymptomatic, so her flying doesn't really scare me. But by all means feel free to freak the frick out.


To be fair, it says when she reported symptoms. She could have had a low grade fever that day and not known.
