Oh lord, released from first hospital he presented to.
“Oh lord, released from first hospital he presented to.”
You caught that too, huh? First thing the US healthcare system did — when the guy had just arrived from LIBERIA — was to fall down on the job.
WTF. Isn’t it standard procedure for medical personnel to ask if you have been out of the country recently??? When I’ve gone to the ER where fever or vomiting was a feature I have been asked during questioning in triage. Did this person withhold that information? With as long as Ebola has been in the forefront of health-related news now, and if the hospital knew this man had been in one of the hot zones...it’s negligence in the highest to release him onto the streets!
