In reply to the discussion: governor perry's administration handling of the ebola case in dallas [View all]drray23
(7,627 posts)6. I am not blaming him for the fact he has an ebola case in his state
Just for the bad coordination of the emergency response by his administration's officials.
What is the reason for that ? Underfunding for health emergency response workers, bad planning, incompetent peoplein charge ? At this point its not looking good. They were arguing that they had problems finding a company to go clean the apartment . With all the homeland security money they undoubtly got why is it that they do not have a team of hazmat people trained for that ?
