I do not think that the CDC owns or controls Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital.
Any violations of protocols would be the fault of the hospital and not the CDC.
It also makes sense it was piling up because everybody refused to pick it up.
This would have more credibility if it were coming from a source other than a Union rep.
Whhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatttttttttttttttttt??????????
Bump
Thanks for the ping!
“Any violations of protocols would be the fault of the hospital and not the CDC.”
The Liability Lawsuit dance for this is just beginning.
Jesse already wants his part of any potential payday for the Duncan family, and if she lives, the Pham girl will never have to work again.
We saw over the weekend the Harvard clinic isolate a potential Ebola case OUTSIDE of the clinic, rather than bring him back in, and hold him there until he was transferred to another facility.
How long until insurers start telling the hospitals that they aren’t covering liability for Ebola?
When that happens, things will get REALLY BAD, REALLY FAST. Most hospitals won’t dare to touch them for liability fears. As long as they sick and die OUTSIDE the Hospital, they aren’t on the hook for it.
That likely explains why they came out today, wanting to establish an Ebola-Only hospital in each state. They SAY it is so the protocols will be easier to follow. IMHO, it is to prevent a liability-induced healthcare meltdown.
Very interesting take on this.
“I thought he was parting at that movie stars home...whats her name?”
Oh right, Barry was enjoying cocktail franks and gushing praise from Gwyneth Paltrow while this was going on.
The Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital will have a line of people wanting to sue, and if it is established the hospital did not follow CDC protocols or any guidelines as the nurses claim, many of those people will win big settlements.
At this point all the CDC and the Feds can do is create Ebola treatment protocols, but they cannot force the hospitals to follow the protocols.
Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital is not a federally owned or controlled hospital.
Unbelievable! Beyond despicable! Lying sons of a gun!
Ping!
I would say no hospital could claim Ebola-readiness. Especially with Friedan claiming nobody could contract it.
I work with a HCW who moonlights with us and the only Ebola directions they’ve been given is ‘wash your hands a lot’.
I think USA population will get Ebola before Mexico gets it.
Anyone knowledgeable about hospital blood transport can discuss the “tube system”? Was this related to the dialysis procedure I believe he was given? I imagine contamination has to be handled for all potential blood-borne diseases, not just Ebola.
With AIDS, the government was determined to convince us that “anyone” could get it. Oprah and everyone else was pounding the message that pretty soon, tens of millions of heterosexuals would be dying of AIDS. It was the Lie of the Decade, like Global Warming or Obama Is a Citizen.
Now, the message is that Ebola is no big deal, which Obola does everything he can to make sure it kills millions of us. He’s sent 4000 troops to Africa to pick up Ebola and bring it home.
Some could for a very small number of patients. For example, I know Harborview/University of Washington Medical Center has been prepared for an outbreak for several years. However, the actual trained staff would be small in number also, nothing like the 70 claimed to have cared for Duncan.
“I would say no hospital could claim Ebola-readiness. Especially with Friedan claiming nobody could contract it.”
Could you please post a link of the CDC stating that nobody could contract Ebola?
I recommend beginning with the head of the illegal alien kenyan with the photo-shopped birth certificate.
