14. Kestrel has been quite hypocritical regarding the nurses

Oct 2014

Here are two of Kestrel's posts only minutes apart..

In the first Kestrel is ripping nurse Vinson a new one for flying and in the second she is strongly defending the CDC for allowing Vinson to fly. The only difference is in the first post Kestrel didn't know Vinson had cleared her trip with authorities.

I wouldn't be surprised if we find out that she had vomiting and diarrhea kestrel91316 Oct 2014 #1

Oh, c'mon KMOD Oct 2014 #2

Why, there is no reporting to back this up rufus dog Oct 2014 #3

Yeah, anyone want to be the next person in that airplane bathroom? Warren DeMontague Oct 2014 #4

Please procede Warren! rufus dog Oct 2014 #5

Do you mean "proceed"? Warren DeMontague Oct 2014 #6

Got me! rufus dog Oct 2014 #10

Gee, you seem awfully tense. Warren DeMontague Oct 2014 #13

not a bit testy rufus dog Oct 2014 #16

Warren, the CDC never said she was symptomatic KMOD Oct 2014 #17

Airline: CDC Warned 'Possibility' Ebola Nurse Had Symptoms on Plane Warren DeMontague Oct 2014 #24

Warren, those warning are "may" KMOD Oct 2014 #27

And like I said, I think it's incredibly unlikely anyone on those planes will catch it. Warren DeMontague Oct 2014 #32

A low level of unnecessary risk for some horrific outcome, is still too high. KMOD Oct 2014 #36

SHE WASN'T IN ISOLATION - NONE OF THEM WERE. Yo_Mama Oct 2014 #53

No. They gave specific symptoms. Ms. Toad Oct 2014 #59

They said she "felt funny" KMOD Oct 2014 #67

In addition to specific symptoms, they ALSO said she felt funny. Ms. Toad Oct 2014 #68

Fair enough, but KMOD Oct 2014 #72

Because, dude, by misspelling it I was being a "smartas" Warren DeMontague Oct 2014 #34

What the CDC has said Ms. Toad Oct 2014 #58

Warren is right Aerows Oct 2014 #9

Fucking Strawman rufus dog Oct 2014 #12

Do what you want to do Aerows Oct 2014 #20

Yes, you are right Aerows KMOD Oct 2014 #21

My body temperature fluctuates Aerows Oct 2014 #23

You are right, again Aerows KMOD Oct 2014 #25

I do Aerows Oct 2014 #29

:) n/t KMOD Oct 2014 #31

I don't understand where this is coming from KMOD Oct 2014 #7

Im not bashing the nurse. She consulted the CDC, the CDC fucked up. Warren DeMontague Oct 2014 #8

I have no idea what the CDC thinks they're doing KMOD Oct 2014 #11

She said she "felt funny" and she was running a fever of 99.5. davidn3600 Oct 2014 #18

Yes, I'm aware of that KMOD Oct 2014 #22

Humans don't all run 98.6 Aerows Oct 2014 #26

Yes, but fever isn't contagious with Ebola Aerows KMOD Oct 2014 #28

I understand that Aerows Oct 2014 #30

Fever is a symptom... FarPoint Oct 2014 #46

And 99.5 is assuming she hadn't taken a fever reducer B2G Oct 2014 #66

Kestrel has been quite hypocritical regarding the nurses Fumesucker Oct 2014 #14

Not sure where the confusion is Aerows Oct 2014 #35

I'm not confused about it Fumesucker Oct 2014 #37

Can't speak on that Aerows Oct 2014 #39

Hey, Fumesucker Aerows Oct 2014 #38

I get the impression Kestrel has some kind of problem with nurses Fumesucker Oct 2014 #40

I am under the same impression. City Lights Oct 2014 #49

Thank you for the links. uppityperson Oct 2014 #70

Folks are getting stigmatized Aerows Oct 2014 #15

OK rufus dog Oct 2014 #19

She wasn't. morningfog Oct 2014 #43

You just can't help yourself. City Lights Oct 2014 #47

I agree, sort of, here is a graphic of the symptom timeline using W.H.O info from BBC... HereSince1628 Oct 2014 #50

That comment is reprehensible, imo. You should give serious consideration KingCharlemagne Oct 2014 #60

I would be. Because she's a nurse, and she would not willingly have exposed her family Yo_Mama Oct 2014 #61

How many cases are being tracked in the United States? 2? Major Hogwash Oct 2014 #41

Only 2 thus far. In_The_Wind Oct 2014 #42

Oh, that explains why 75 threads were started this week in the GD forum about ebola. Major Hogwash Oct 2014 #44

What else is new? In_The_Wind Oct 2014 #45

Yes, because no one can possibly think about two things at once. Sheldon Cooper Oct 2014 #51

The actual "cases" are not being "tracked". They are in Biocontainment Patient Care Units at kestrel91316 Oct 2014 #54

I would think test the woman, confirm negative, everyone goes on their way Yo_Mama Oct 2014 #56

I suspect that's what they will do. Her 21 days is up this weekend. kestrel91316 Oct 2014 #62

Yeah, but her potential risk is so very, very low Yo_Mama Oct 2014 #63

It would be a mess for the record books, that's for sure. kestrel91316 Oct 2014 #65

Can they tell by the viral load at the time of the test? B2G Oct 2014 #55

There's a definite implication based on results Yo_Mama Oct 2014 #57

I agree with you. LisaL Oct 2014 #69

They didn't seem to wait for the second test to announce it, Yo_Mama Oct 2014 #71

I think it's obvious Amber was symptomatic for days before she got on the plane to go back to Dallas LisaL Oct 2014 #73
