Doctor rushed to Bellevue Hospital with Ebola symptoms went bowling a day earlier

[Roadrunner]

This is the nightmare scenario I was trying to explain would happen if there were not super strict protocols in place.

When people say well less than 5,000 have died in West Africa one has to remember we are talking mostly deaths in remote villages where there aren't subways or restaurants or clubs.

For crying out loud they take their dying to shelters in wheelbarrows.

Having lived thru SARS its not the amount of the dead and dying at all because we do have the knowledge and the equipment to control an outbreak BUT when a bloody fool like this who has intimate knowledge of the disease, has been exposed and doesn't self quarantine himself like that arrogant ***** from NBC someone better seize control of the situation and make the quarantines absolutely mandatory.

We had to do it in Toronto because arrogant idiots thought they could "monitor" themselves yet put hundreds of others at risk because of their foolhardiness.

Think of the man power and man hours right now being spent tracking every single place and person this asshole doctor came in contact with between NYC and Brooklyn.

Yikes!

Wait until it gets into the rat population.

This ******* doctor put the entire city at risk.

Just unbelievable

Yeah, try country at risk. Especially when you put NYC at risk.

The defecation is about to hit the fan. If this gets by CDC, heads will roll; high UP heads.

Hell, our retirement funds will take one Hell of a hit tomorrow over this.

I wonder how many other of these "Doctors Without Borders" docs are running around infected?

Let us wait 21 days. Remember the left insisting it is not that contagious. Which means there is nothing apparently to worry about.

Still unlikely to get here.

It's not going to get HERE!!!

If it gets in the general population, I only have to blow two small bridges, and nobody but the military gets HERE!

Better NYC than Texas.

If the rate of exposure stays the same as in West Africa then there is a doubling effect. The rates over there were doubling every 3 weeks as it spread.

Given that our medical abilities are night and day compared to West Africa, so will it have a doubling effect here as well. In the case of Dallas it doubled from 1 to 2.
If the statistics of West Africa are applied to NY then 2 more will get it. Then there are 4. If we didn't catch all those in close contact then in the next 3 weeks there will be 8...............

Hopefully, the doubling statistics will not be the same here due to better medical facilities............We will see, and hopefully not repeat what happened in Africa.

Patient in New York City Tests Positive for Ebola

He told the authorities that he did not believe the protective gear he wore while working with Ebola patients had been breached but had been monitoring his own health.

Doctors Without Borders, in a statement, said it provides guidelines for its staff on their return from Ebola assignments, but did not elaborate on those protocols.

“The individual engaged in regular health monitoring and reported this development immediately,” the group said in a statement.

Dr. Spencer began to feel sluggish on Tuesday but did not develop a fever until Thursday morning, he told the authorities. At 11 a.m., the doctor found that he had a 103-degree temperature and alerted the staff of Doctors Without Borders, according to the official.

The staff of Doctors Without Borders called the city’s health department, which in turn called the Fire Department.

Emergency medical workers, wearing full personal protective gear, rushed to Dr. Spencer’s apartment, on West 147th Street. He was transported to Bellevue and arrived shortly after 1 p.m.

He was placed in a special isolation unit and is being seen by the pre-designated medical critical care team. They are in personal protective equipment with undergarment air ventilation systems.

He did not seek medical evaluation or help until he had a temperature of 103.

No person goes from a normal temperature of 98.6, to a temperature of 103 in less than several hours, and generally a day or more.

The time period from a temp of a 103, and the time he went out in public was less than 14 hours.

When he reached a temperature of 101, why did he not self-isolate?

This doctor's behavior was not in keeping with someone with the intelligence and training required to become a Doctor who is sent to an Ebola Hot zone.

This was a deliberate act. We all know it, even if right now our selfish, foolish Politics, prevent U.S. from admitting it!

There is no way Ebola is in America. No way.

I mean just 3 weeks ago, our honest president, who has never told a lie said it was unlikely to get here.

According to a statement released by Doctors Without Borders, the physician -- who it did not identify -- engaged in "regular health monitoring."

The doctor checked his temperature twice a day since departing Guinea, said Dr. Mary Bassett, the commissioner of the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.

As soon as he showed symptoms he went into quarantine.

Republicans are such pussies. So scared of everything. They base their policies on fear. And they call liberals weak? Hilarious.

Imagine when our soldiers come back.

There should be a mandate quarantine for 21 days, a temporary one issued.

The Doctor admits that he noticed feeling Sluggish on Tuesday.

Yup, but according to the cdc they say he was only on contact with 4 people.

Why did this get moved to the "clean debate zone"?

Unsubbed before I get myself in trouble.
