I realize I am a broken record. The devil is in the details.

Let me see here:

1.Taking off a hazmat suit is mentally rigorous and physically exhausting.
2. The suit is unbearably hot.
3. Your vitals have to be taken before you suit up and after you take it off. At most you can
last a half hour in the suit at which point heat stroke is a given.
4. It requires two people to put the suit on and off. Taping must be exact.
5. Removal requires careful disposal procedures. (When you are completely exhausted and
dehydrated, try to take off two layers of gloves following exact procedures yet to be defined
by the CDC with any consistency or clarity.) The suit must be checked if it is reused for rips,
tears, holes, punctures or any other even tiny, practically invisible openings that could make
the suit vulnerable.
6. In projectile vomiting by a patient the particles may aerosolize. At that moment ebola is
airborne.
The same applies to extremely dangerous procedures like using dialysis on a patient or
inserting a breathing tube where the spread of air droplets requires a respirator and not just a
face mask. Any opening in one's suit make one vulnerable.
7. The above process requires training drills with a partner over and over. Training must be
repeated every three years.
8.All the above requires that a hospital/city/country/state actually have disposal facilities for
ebola waste. The state of Texas for example does not have a disposal facility.
9.All of the above to be effective also requires clear communication between doctors, nurses,
patients, city, country, state, CDC, and the White House. That transparency does not exist in
the U.S. Call the CDC hotline because you may be exposed to ebola and you are put on hold
for 80 minutes and then you receive a half baked, inadequate answer because Tom Frieden at
the CDC and the president have not thought through answers to questions or solutions to
problems. They are living in a fantasy world.
The CDC declared: US hospitals can safely manage patients with ebola. 75,000 people die
each year in U.S. hospitals due to hospital originating infections. 16 highly trained doctors in
Doctors without Borders have become infected with ebola. U.S. hospitals are not ready to
deal with, not ordinary, but with highly contagious infections.
My conclusion is that Tom Frieden at the CDC is absolutely insane. He has lost his mind.
There are only four special isolation hospitals in the U.S. that are ready to treat ebola. For
example, there is negative air flow to prevent contamination from leaving the room. But the
NIH Clinical Center in Bethesda where ebola patient Nina Pham is being treated only has
SEVEN beds.
"Patients infected with the Ebola virus require a large number of staffers to provide care
around-the-clock. At NIH, that comes out to about 27 people a week doctors, nurses,
support staff for ONE patient, Gallin said. With about 50 to 60 such personnel specially
trained for infectious disease and critical care, NIH can only care for two Ebola patients at a
time, he said."
"There is a step-by-step, checklisted procedure to putting on your personal protective
equipment for when you go in to the patients room to perform your duties and when you
come out."
There is one person whose only job is to make sure health-care workers put on and take off
their protective equipment correctly.

Devil Details: One foreign ebola patient = two nurses infected + 800 people being tracked. (If
this were Lagos, Nigeria, each one of those 800 people would have a face to face interview
and followup. Given Nigeria's swift response that stopped ebola from spreading, soon it will
be safer to be in Lagos than in New York City or Washington DC.)
Fortunately, the White House will be forced to ban flights from West Africa when the FAA
demands it because U.S. citizens cancel their plans to fly and the airlines face bankruptcy.
Even now there are pilots calling in sick to avoid flying and backup pilots have to be called
in.
By the way, be careful about getting sick when you are flying. One passenger today who
became sick was "locked" inside the plane bathroom. The flight attendant union is demanding
better cleaning procedures and that all flight attendants be provided with protective gear
which they do not now have.
Nurses and doctors from the Dallas hospital are being asked to avoid public places and public
transportation.
Mexico and Belize close borders to U.S. cruise ship refusing to assist in evacuation of an
individual with low risk exposure.
3,000 U.S. troops in Liberia, Africa are given four hour training on ebola.
Four hours is only an introductory course. It is a 40 hour course just to deal with hazardous
materials. FEMA hazmat training is a five day course.
