"was not a health care worker, and therefore did not have to be under the 21-day home quarantine required of those individuals introduced by New York's Governor Cumo in October."What? The quarantine only affects health care workers?
Voluntary monitoring. How's that working for you NY?

The phrase “mental hygiene” is bizarre enough, without having a New York City department with that in its name.
To: dennisw
dennisw:" The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene said the woman, whose identity was not immediately released,
returned from West Africa 18 days ago and appeared symptom-free prior to her sudden death."
If she went to West Africa to attend a funeral , I would be even more concerned . Ebola symptoms develope anywhere from 2- 42 days after exposure, average symptoms 2-12 days ,according to latest guidlines from WHO(World Health Organization).

“Ebola death doesnt seem to come on suddenly.”
There are 300 strains/mutations. Could this be the suddenly drop dead and bleed strain?

Something is wrong with this story. If she was being monitored for Ebola, this seems like a remarkably rapid onset of symptoms, culminating in dropping dead. Bleeding out is an end-stage symptom, not initially present.
"Did you try CPR?" LOL!

Theres a difference between a “heart attack” ( AMI) and Cardiac Arrest.

Don’t know about this case, but in some articles, the only “monitoring” is phone calls from public health workers.

While the details as given don’t sound like Ebola, still it is better not to take chances. I have written previously that Ebola might be successfully treated by high doses of intravenous and oral Vitamin C. Apparently the first thing the virus does is wipe out all C stores in the body, so you have instant end stage scurvy. Tissues fall apart and victim bleeds out. I recently read in the 2006 World Book Science Year that it had been discovered that American black with Sierra Leon ancestry had a higher rate of premature births. It seemed to be related to fragility of the collagen holding the womb together. Perhaps this is why those from in and near Sierra Leon are especially susceptible to this virus. Check out Dr. Frederick Klenner, Dr. Cathcart and Dr. Linus Pauling for more info on potential for Vitamin C as treatment of Ebola and other hemmorhagic fevers.

Most people with Ebola don’t die from bleeding, but from dehydration leading to hypovolemic shock and organ failure.
Simple rehydration solutions might make a big difference in survival rates, constant replenishment of fluids before shock sets in.
If you can link to any studies suggesting that Vitamin C depletion is a factor in Ebola disease, I would appreciate it.

"Is Ebola back in New York?

Why would you say something like that?
Curious to learn why you hope countless innocents might be exposed to a horrific disease.

Is Ebola back in New York? As the White House might respond:
"Hey Dude that was the news cycle nearly two weeks ago."
"Let it go.. we've now moved on to Amnesty for Illegals."

Well, if she had a sudden massive heart attack and hit something while collapsing, couldnt that cause bleeding?Not much. It only runs out profusely when the heart is still beating or there is contemporaneous trauma transecting or perforating major vessels or organs.

A chicken will run around a while after you lop the head off. The heart continues to beat for a little bit.
People who die of heart failure die because their heart quit. BP=0/0

Yeah. I saw that, too. Anyone who can get on the plane over there and come here who isn't a health care worker, regardless of potential for exposure apparently isn't subjected to the quarantine.
That's more than a 'double face-palm' worth of stupid, imho.

The pre-election quarantine on Ebola news seems to have dropped dead.
