View Poll Results: If there was an Ebola vaccine, would you take it?
Yes, I'd be one of the first to get a vaccine. Better safe than sorry. 41 11.20%
If it came to my region, then yes, I'd get vaccinated. 67 18.31%
Too soon, but I wouldn't rule it out in the future. 192 52.46%
Rush-to-market vaccines are dangerous. No way would I get a vaccine. 77 21.04%

Thank god! I mean seriously, what good would that have done?

Please spare me the weepies about how a major hospital does not have the resources to handle a virus. They are responsible for the preparedness level of their hospital.

The owners of this hospital have ownership in medical facilities all over the region. They are not a poor cash strapped outfit in the burgs ignorant of protocol and procedure for any type of civic emergency.

Exactly

They have emergency camps,,,why not transport ebola there,,,,keep them out of hospitals in the infected stages...Better yet keep them out of the country,,,,,that's prevention, a "PROTOCOL" they seem to have missed.....

Ask the infected how the open borders thing is working for them......

buy bleach....

Seems she just had to have soup from Peasant Grill, a NJ deli, and was spotted there.

Now she's under police surveillance, because that's what happens when people violate a quarantine. IMO, this dame's lost all credibility. Not that this political hack had much in my book to begin with.
She needs to have some type of charges against her. What happens to that restaurant if she is infected? This is WAY out of hand. All for some damn soup??? Does she know what a quarantine is?

Snyderman's behavior has caused her to lose credibility with me. She should lose her job.
Bentley has been quarantined for days already! Why are they dragging their feet? Maybe they kept it on the down low? I sure would like to know if it is able to species jump!

Synderman should at least lose her ABC job.

So I guess they aren't taking American students either, since we have our own outbreak here. It's not racism, btw, it's incompetence and fear. What a bunch of douchebags.

Does anyone have a link to an article about the nurse who quit her job at the Dallas hospital to come forward about the working conditions there? Someone mentioned it in this thread, but I can't find an article.
