Official Ebola update thread

[Anonymous]

Would it be better to go to an ebola ready hospital or one that isn't? would imagine there could be a sick patient and the non ebola hospital could overlook symptoms.

Jesus.

I'm the one who lives near Reston hospital, and I am worried because my dd's have asthma. My 8 year old has been sick with a virus for 2 weeks, and has spent the last 3 nights coughing. If I have to take her to the hospital for breathing difficulties, I would normally take her to Reston. If a passenger with ebola flies into Dulles, then there we would be. Right in an ebola hospital. I call that a reason for concern. If you don't think so, you are deluding yourself.

They need somewhere to treat people close to the airport. Every hospital is going to be inconvenient to some of its neighbors. If you are worried, pick a back up hospital


Not the PP, but the closest hospital is imperative for an asthmatic who is having breathing issues --including bad coughing. If I cough more than 2 times in a row, I know I am at risk for an attack. If I have an attack, I'd been in trouble to travel more than. 10 min to an ER.

Of couse you do! My daughter is asthmatic and so a. I. Why this PP thinks a non-citizen should have rights over a citizen shows the delusional thinking of Obamabots

Wow, you are selfish. Citizens can get Ebola and fly in planes too. You don't get personal,dibs on the hospital, obvious, but you seem to think the world revolves around your needs.

I'm not any of the previous PPs. I also live near both Fairfax and Reston hospitals. Certainly there must be a hospital closer to Dulles then those two. Fairfax is pretty far from Dulles. And, yeah, I'm pissed off that the two hospitals close to me are now "Ebola" hospitals. Duncan was selfish for bringing that disease to the U.S. And who knows what Obama's agenda is that he is turning our country into who knows what when he could have just banned the flights and avoided all of this!!!!!!!!!! I've always voted Democrat, but it's likely I'll vote Republican if they are willing to do all the common sense,right things for this country regarding ebola.

Why have you always voted Democratic, and why would you change now? Just curious about specifics.

To the Yale Community,
As you may have learned from reports in the media, one of the doctoral students who returned recently from a research mission to Liberia was hospitalized in isolation on Wednesday night after developing a low-grade fever. There is no indication at this time that the student has contracted the Ebola virus (EVD). The hospitalization decision was made out of an abundance of caution, on the recommendation of the student’s doctors, local and state health officials, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The student is being monitored, and Yale-New Haven Hospital is working with the CDC and the State Department of Public Health to have the student tested for EVD, but the results will not be available immediately.
I understand that this situation may be worrying to some of you, to your families and friends, and to members of the Yale and New Haven communities. The health and safety of our interconnected communities is always our highest priority. The doctoral students who visited Liberia are knowledgeable about public health. They have reported that they were not in contact with Ebola patients or caregivers in Liberia, that they carefully followed recommended travel and hygiene precautions during their stay in the country and that they have continued to do so since their return. In addition, I know our colleagues at Yale-New Haven Hospital are well prepared to address this situation, however it develops, with compassion and skill.
I encourage you to find out all you can about Ebola, its transmission, and its treatment and cure. In-depth information is available at a special web page that has been compiled on the YaleNews site and at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s website.
Before closing, I feel that I should directly address the question of why our Public Health students – or why anyone affiliated with Yale – would even consider traveling to these dangerous parts of the world. As an academic institution with a research and teaching mission and a long tradition of service, it is important for our clinicians and investigators to be able to go where they can put their training and expertise to the highest, best use. Some members of our community with special expertise may be called on to engage directly in order to advance knowledge and understanding, to treat the sick, or to tend to those who are displaced or suffering. If they do, I hope we will all offer gratitude and support, just as we do now for our hospitalized student.
We will keep you posted as we learn more over the next few days.
Sincerely,
Peter Salovey
President and
Chris Argyris Professor of Psychology

The initial tests have come back negative.

Selfish nurse was sick on first flight--not just second one. Breaking news by CDC. This greatly increases the number of exposures....another 140 so to call/monitor.

WTF did she get on a plane?!?!!!!

Frieden is the head of the CDC, not the Surgeon General.

You mean the one who was going on about how a single person would infect a whole plane? Let's see how many people from Amber Vinson's flight come down with Ebola. My money's on zero. I'll assume yours in on 132. Shall we see who was closer?

I love that the CDC has now come out and said the people on the first flight might have been infected, all the while Freidan is saying it's not that contagious. He's just a shill for a corrupt administration. We are good and truly fucked. He and Obama have been lying all along.

Time for the people if this country to stop listening to this idiot, and start listenint to the top virologists and doctors.

BTW? One of the top virologists working with ebola literally said it's too late to contain it here.
