can we consolidate the two threads?

The other thread was mostly conjecture and had ventured into quite a few turns along with some good info. This thread is for info going forward on the Dr's movements, treatments, civil rules & observations

Gotta love the "deer in the headlights" look by the governor. Bet he can't wait to get his ass outta town! so far, just blah blah blah..we're ready, we're the best..Dallas fupped up!! but we won't. we're learning from the Dallas experience. Oh geese, he's saying that the "fortunate circumstance" here was that the patient is a Doctor, knew the symptoms and "handled himself accordingly"

WHAT is this guy smoking?

Governor Cuomo speaking

Past few weeks preparing for just this circumstance ... this is New York ... can't say unexpected ... full coordinated efforts ... city/state/federal ... drilling (lists all forms) ... Dallas was the exact opposite ... caught before they could prepare ... we learned from Dallas ... yesterday 5,000 HCW were being drilled just for this ...

De Blasio: Nothing to worry about. Hard disease to get.

I am not one given to doomer panic and paranoia, plus am a scientifically grounded healthcare provider. BUT... I am conflicted by the statements that Ebola is very hard to catch, so dont worry... yet the infected HCW's caught their Ebola while wearing PPE and following isolation procedures. Does not jive.

Doctor handled himself accordingly ... for relevant period of time exposed to very few people ... he was taking precautions ... Ebola spreads fear ... not an airborne illness ... contracted when person is extremely ill ... through bodily fluids ... Ebola Czar immediate in sending CDC ... Homeland coordinated ... review everything .. done with their advice ...doing everything that we need to be doing ... Dallas was frightening, New York is more frightening ... more dense ... identified about four of the people who he came into contact with during relevant period ...

Hope doctor recovers ... we're doing everything ... have the situation under control ... weeks and weeks of preparation ... today it worked well ...

Health Commissioner Bassett ... last couple of months been preparing ... for Ebola in NYC ... today is presumptive positive .. .to be confirmed by CDC in 24 hours ...

I'll put it this way. The MSM and President who has lied to us about everything is inferring we should trust two thieving lying Democrats to control this outbreak in the financial heart of the world.

Feel better now? I don't....:kk2:
 
"Fortunate circumstances" would have been a doctor quarantining himself for at LEAST the 21 days recommended by the CDC; NOT gallivanting around a hugely populated city after coming back from working in an Ebola stricken country.

So, this well informed Dr comes back to the US, spends ten days doing whatever, finally has a fever (who knows when it started) finally the fever goes to the "trigger" level of 103F, self reports.

I have no words as to the idiocy displayed by this person. More so because he had the training to know better. I hope he did not infect anyone else. I suspect he infected others, more than his GF.

Drs in this country, as a class, will kill you outright simply because they know that they are right and will continue to misdiagnose and mistreat you according to whatever their prejudices of the moment happen to be. 40% of them do not wash their hands between Pts. That in and of itself should scare the living feces out of anyone seeking care.

This idiot strikes me as a good example of a Dr who knew, without doubt, that he was right, and was not infected with Ebola...until he finally recognized that he was wrong.

You can only get Ebola by being exposed to bodily fluids ... Fever and other symptoms were this morning ...

I'm sorry but this Dr. spent months treating infected people with the Ebola virus and was told to self quarantine for 21 days yet he took public cabs, the subway, went bowling and had contact with his fiancée' with the full knowledge that he could be harming these people within the incubation period. Yes, he did this intentionally IMHO and should be charged as a terrorist. How much was he paid was my first thought. Sorry, tin foil on too tight.
