SALT LAKE CITY — A patient with symptoms that “raised some concern for Ebola” was admitted into Primary Children’s Hospital, officials announced Thursday.
“While we have determined it is unlikely that the patient has Ebola virus, Primary Children’s has taken this opportunity to use the emergency plan that we have been working on for the past few months in order to provide the maximum protection to staff, patients, families and the greater community in the event we do have a patient with an Ebola infection in the future,” a statement from Primary Children’s Hospital reads.
A press briefing will be held at 1 p.m. More information will be posted as it becomes available.

ESFP adrift in INTJ sea
Doesn't HAVE to be a kid. Rainbow Babies and Childrens handles adults under certain circumstances.
And as for quarantine and other concerns, Pediatric Hospitals are actually BETTER than many other hosps because quarantine and isolation there are practiced MUCH more than in adult hosps and BOY HOWDY do they get protective and proactive with patients and visitors.
ONLY nurse that EVER scared me as a medic or patient was a sweet lil' thang in a peds hosp who, morphed INSTANTLY into a 300 pound DI who proceeded to explain in 1 and 2 syllable words why I was going to follow specific instructions "RIGHT F****NG NOW, A$$**LE". I swear that 95 pound, 5'3" lil' gal WAS going to bend me into a pretzel.
So yes they CAN handle this sort of thing.
And yes, after 15 yrsa, some of the terms and their associations WERE new to me....couldn't sit down for a week after that chewing.

See post #1001 on the Ebola Texas thread. The "child" had been in Africa. They won't confirm the patient is a child. Primary Children's Hospital accepts children up through age 17.

Ebola: Two People In Kentucky May Also Have Contracted The Deadly Virus
ebola
Ebola may have hit Kentucky. Two patients have been hospitalized with Ebola-like symptoms, according to Fayette County Health Department officials. The locals doctors have quarantined the possible Kentucky Ebola patients as a precaution, noting the potential public threat caused by the release of Texas Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan.
“The business of detecting it and finding out what it is, we’re in good shape. If we get cases we need to be working more closely with the hospitals to see how we will manage individual cases,” Dr. Rice Leach told the media. “But where did you get it, what is it, and who did you give it to? So far we’re in great shape because we’ve practiced thing three times going back as far as Anthrax, H1N1, and vaccine shortage 10 years ago.”
As previously reported by The Inquisitr, a Candian Public Health Agency notice stated that airborne Ebola transmission could be a possibility – but the website memo was removed and amended.
Check back with The Inquisitr for more details about the Kentucky Ebola patients when more information becomes available.

No night driver, there is one other worse than the Pediatric nurse, the dreaded OB nurse. She is there waiting in the shadows ready to pounce at a moments notice.

I hope everyone realizes that this epidemic, possibly pandemic, will last over a year because of its gestation period; people please prepare for this long duration.
