Eventually the hard stricken areas will run out of medical care.

Spanish Nurse only went in the patients room twice both times wore personal protection.

And they now know she contacted the virus by rubbing her face with gloves that contacted infected material. You can't do that. " onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The Obama administration has spoken. Turns out, Ebola is just an isolated instance of workplace virus.

He seemed a little too quick to come down with it. The key will be the family patient 0 stayed with.

Today, a British citizen in the Balkans somewhere went to the hospital with Ebola symptoms and died. So they have quarantined the hotel he was staying at.

He did not follow the protocol he was given and could have infected untold numbers if he had been postive for Ebola.

It now seems Ebola has gone political.

For everyone's sake including our president, let's hope and pray the relatives of Dallas patient 0 stay well.

Patient 1 in Dallas, a nurse who cared for Thomas Duncan, tested positive for Ebola.

Very bad news for caregivers.

Very bad news for caregivers.

Especially given the fact that the caregiver was in full protective gear when dealing with patient 0. Either the caregiver was infected when disrobing or the protective gear being used is not sufficient. Either way, this thing is transmitted in a much more efficient way than we are being led to believe.

I agree. The CDC and some "other experts" would also have us believe that Mr Duncan went to the hospital in a plastic bubble or "teleported" their. Twice.

Hard to believe he didn't come into contact with random people, touch a door, touch the check in counter or sit in a chair in the waiting room.
