Dallas Ebola infection/incubation timeline 10.21.14

[TorchTheWitch]

3. we don't know when any of the hospital workers could have gotten infected

Your timeline is based on all the workers at the hospital where Mr. Duncan was being cared for were only possibly exposed all on the same day. According to the whistle blower nurse even when they got hazmat suits their necks were still exposed, garbage from caring for him was piling up, etc. Not even the CDC knows when or how either Pham or Vinson became infected. Since the virus become more virulent the sicker the patient gets it may even make more sense that because no one was disinfecting through the entire time of his care any of the workers may have been infected at any period between the time he was admitted to the hospital and whatever day it was that his body was removed and everything sterilized.

Quarantine days are counted from the date of last possible exposure. We don't have any idea what the last date of possible exposure may have been for any of the workers, nor do we know what day Pham and Vinson became infected.

The whistle blower nurse said she was one of the nurses that cared for Pham at the hospital until the day she was moved, and without proper precautions even then she and others that cared for her may have been exposed during that time.

Even the CDC has no idea who all may possibly have been exposed or when. They don't even know how or when the two infected nurses were exposed. Therefore it isn't possible to make up a timeline for even those two much less all the other workers that may have been exposed including those people that handled patient refuse, removal of the body, or from anything that may have been tracked from his room.
