And... if a so-called ‘breach in protocol’ is so rare according the CDC, why is MRSA (methicillin resistant staph aureus) throughout virtually EVERY hospital in the country? There are so many ‘holes’ in our isolation procedures. I am a nurse of more than forty years...I have watched the entire system disintegrate...yes, there are breaches...in the education programs for nurses and as well as doctors. Breaches in protocol have been part of this issue from the beginning, just as is so with most of our healthcare now.

The gowns and mask healthcare workers are using are not spacesuits- they are paper material which get moist with much wear. Ask any hospital nurse how flimsy they can be. Hair is not even covered!

Probably an SIEU member too. Go figure. Glad she is not here in Texas. Dallas is probably the worst place in Texas this virus could have landed in. Corrupt democrats at top of political food chain. Don’t even get me started on that moronic Judge Jenkins.

You need to understand that politically this is a very sensitive time for the democrats. If the public panics it could effect their chances in the upcoming elections. It wouldn’t surprise me if there are not others that are being covered up...

Good point - the one thing we know for sure about democrats is they have ZERO problem making up lies.

A 22 bed ICU unit is being turned over to an Ebola unit... hard to believe they only expect the one case...

All of the books I’ve read in the past that had to do with deadly virus research sure differs from what’s happening in Dallas. As I recall these researchers in space suits had to go through a couple of heavy decontamination procedures before removing suits.

The last speaker... was escorted off... the doctor who said they were turning over the 22 bed ICU unit to an ebola unit... Sounds like they expect more ebola cases - OR they’re concerned they can’t decontaminate the space...

“A single inadvertent slip can result in contamination,” Frieden said. “In terms of safe and effective care, we had already begun several days ago to ramp up the education and training of health care workers at this facility.”

He also explained we must maintain a balance in the use of personal safety equipment adding “putting more on isn’t always safer. It may make it harder, to provide effective care.”

Intentional Breach of protocol on our BORDER also. These so called "words" have
meaning and the illegal unconstitutional Breaches by the Democrats are deliberate.

The rule of law must come down on DC.

Thank you! The question why the family and first emergency room handlers have not contracted and how a nurse in protective gear has contracted has been driving me nuts. Could the nurse have handeled blood and the others just contact with bodily fluids?

Blame some unknown breach,

Blame the protocols,

Blame the moon suits,

Blame decontamination methods, the training, lack of education and on and on and on and on...

Never mind isolating these nasty diseases in their countries of origin....

That makes too much GD sense...

Fly these infected and exposed all over the planet...

That’s the ticket!

As the audience of fools applaud...

60 days? Maybe 600 or 6,000. This can’t burn out in 2 months.

I/we don’t know the answers to your questions.

The reality is simple re how these people in Spain and in Dallas got Ebola.

The CDC protective garb recommendations, before Ebola started happening in America is not adequate and dangerous.

Therefore any training how to protect the hospital workers based on CDC recommendations was dangerous and not helpful.

Almost as if he is directly working to spread this virus with his Orwellian double speak. Be afraid...very afraid.

He often contradicts his own statements in the same sentence. He has now done this on multiple occasions. Much like Obama does. It is the mark of someone that wants to put out contradictory official statements on purpose in order to have it ‘both ways’ so to speak. Nothing solid can ever been pinned on them.

The very mark of unaccountable bureaucrats, politicians and/or lawyers.
