I spend a good part of my day covered in some kind of body fluid from strangers. Add to that the fact that my small little town in rural NW Montana has a YWAM base...a place to train and support missionaries to/from all over the world. AND, one of our regional hospitals is set up as one of the 5 in the country with appropriate isolation suites to handle Ebola patients. That next sick call or flu-like symptoms call I run, which used to be routine, will have me reaching for a full-on hazmat suit. The more the press tells me not to worry? THE MORE I WORRY!
Wow, now there is something to worry about. Please be careful. Was it ever noted how the nurse in Dallas was infected?

I saw this this morning so I missed the special. Were you able to watch it?
I just read on CNN that another healthcare worker tested positive. It's very sad and frightening. My heart goes out to these people and all these healthcare workers.0 -

That's disgusting. I couldn't watch it (at work) but I read it. It's a shame.0 -

I'm saying you shouldn't freak out! Unless you touch or ingest the blood, semen or other bodily fluids of an Ebola-infected person, you're not going to get it. Chill out.0
