News Hospital released Ebola patient by mistake

yes because the president wrote the protocols for Dallas Presbyterian

 

He stopped his current trip(s) to deal with the issue. +1. Going on TV in the current situation and talking about hugs...so not enough.

Situations like this require command and control leadership not the Princess Diana approach. He should give the CDC local authority, rather than just recommendations to local healthcare givers/admins. He should mandate that all potential new patients be funneled to one of the 4 approved isolation centers. He should require more stringent screening at airports that receive flights from West Africa. He should use extreme alacrity to facilitate training among all hospitals but certainly among the larger healthcare facilities located in large cities across the US. He needs to ensure that the military people, mostly from Kentucky, have been given adequate training and spend as little exposure time as possible. He needs to say that he will be meeting 2x/day with the CDC experts to get updates and have best practice models deployed immediately.

There are so many things he can and should do as CiC. What I saw this morning didn't cut it.

 

That isn't his job and we both know that. He has bypassed Congress and made unilateral decisions time and time again. Do it now. The country is approaching some form of panic. His job is to alleviate that and hugging people is not enough.

 

If there's any justice in the world.......

 

Not bad. Almost 17 full pages before Ebola became political.

If we are here talking about the President's involvement then our entire medical and emergency response system has failed us. Oh wait...

 

It always has been political in terms of how much money and effort has been put toward finding a cure here and in Africa.

I have slammed the CDC and the NIH as well as hospital administrators and all the "officials" involved who have not been completely transparent. The President has seen fit to go on TV and discuss it so he's up for discussion as well. People should go read the transcripts from the House hearings going on right now. Some idiots (Waxman) and some not so bad (the Michigan rep).

 

the nurse being cared for at Presby is being moved to Maryland.

“This evening, tonight, we will be admitting to the special clinical studies unit at the National Institutes of Health, Nina Pham, otherwise known as nurse no. 1. She will come to the National Institutes of Health, where she will supply here with state of the art care in our high level containment facility,” Fauci said.

Dallas failed miserably. Killed a president and an ebola patient.

 

typical dallas.

 

to do what exactly, close the borders to Africans?
