Per CDC guidlines, a healthcare professional caring for an Ebola patient in the United States should wear: a fluid-resistant gown, goggles, gloves, and a mask. I believe that there are valuable lessons to be learned in all situations. Here, I believe that full PPE as we know it to be in hopitals today is not adequate in preventing the spread of this deadly and highly contageous virus. So I’m asking the Centers for Disease Control: Why is the team decontaminating the nurse’s apartment in full hazmat gear when our health care workers caring for Ebola patients are provided with less than adequate protection?
I’m asking the CDC move quickly to update their current guidelines requireing the use of HAZMAT gear implemention of decontamination protocol for healthcare providers
