No. It’s like a lot of things, the protocols have to be followed every time. This is why the hospital’s like Emory or the one in Nebraska are better suited for this. In normal hospitals they do not work under the conditions of quarantine this much.

You cannot make a mistake when handling this stuff.

“You cannot make a mistake when handling this stuff.”

Precisely the issue. And it has nothing to do with ‘airborne’ or ‘particulate’ or ‘droplet’.

Humans make mistakes.

When it becomes clear that a mistake is suicide for the nursing staff and other medicos, they’ll simply stop showing up for work.

It’s the reason the MSF garb/decon procedures are so extensive. You can’t get people to work in those wards unless they’re certain that they are somewhat more insulated from the consequences of simply being human.
