Y'all there was a false case a week ago In cypress which is only like 40 minutes away from where I live, I know this really isn't anything to panic about but knowing that this has spread to my home state and is only an hour drives away from where I live is so sketch..

How did she get it if he was wearing the protective gear?

He didn't have the isolation unit in the hospital until it was confirmed it was Ebola.

That's the problem - this was not a hospital that was in any way prepared for Ebola. There are only about 4 hospitals in the country that are - 4. There are 5,723 hospitals in the US. They didn't have the equipment or training to handle this in any shape or form. It's like if I asked you to go snowboarding but only use a 2x4 plank of wood - it's not going to be an easy ride. At least they had the common sense to start them to Emory...

People taking this as if it's similar to SARS or something.

 

It's not.

 

 

People can only get infected if or when

they are making contact with fluids (i.e: blood, sperm)

and not when they're coughing.

Sperm aren't fluid. They're alive. Semen is fluid though.. well.. plasma, but let's not get into that.
