[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]NBC's cameraman has been declared "ebola free" and I guess will be released from the hospital in the next few days And Pham's condition has been upgraded from fair to good.[b] Tx Health Presby[/b] will not treat any other Ebola cases, shoudl they pop up amongst the staff still quarantined; there are now 2 other designated hospitals in the area.

All according to NBC tonight.[/quote]
How is that place still open? Hopefully any "doctor" from there will be barred from practicing.[/quote]

It's open but apparently completely empty. There are about 25 staff members staying there -- the ones who are still under quarantine having cared for Duncan; they don't have to stay but they don't want to be home with their own families in case they develop symptoms. Otherwise people in Dallas are scared to go there even for a sprained ankle, as there are fears of whether the hospital has been cleaned effectively etc. I imagine a lot of drs/staff have or are about to quit and jump ship to Baylor, Medical City etc.; I'm not sure how this hospital overcomes the reputational taint. I mean if you were a well educated dr. who had nothing to do with this, do you really even want to say to anyone you work there? The general public there things the entire staff is incompetent even though that likely isn't true as the incompetence was "only" demonstrated by the ER/ICU/infectious disease higher ups.[/quote]

Bahahahaha, Medical City could only hope to doctors from THR.  Are you for real?
