Texas Hospital Official Apologizes for Lapses in Ebola Care
Quote:
In the prepared remarks, Dr. Daniel Varga, the chief clinical officer for Texas Health Resources, the medical group that oversees Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, said that “unfortunately, in our initial treatment of Mr. Duncan, despite our best intentions and a highly skilled medical team we made mistakes.”
He added: “We did not correctly diagnose his symptoms as those of Ebola. We are deeply sorry.”

Dr. Paul E. Jarris, the executive director of the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials, said the C.D.C. as well as state and local agencies had been sending out materials on Ebola for months, but that it was up to each of the 5,000 hospitals to prepare and drill. Next week, the C.D.C. is scheduled to hold a large Ebola training session at the Javits Center in New York for thousands of health workers.
“The tools were there but the challenge is getting the horse to drink,” Dr. Jarris said, adding that the task was complicated by federal budget cuts. Funds for hospital preparedness are down by 40 percent since 2010, he said.
Many health workers said that Ebola was on the radar, but that real preparation would take more than a single training exercise or an emailed brochure. Hospitals with specialty units, such as Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, where the second infected nurse was transferred Wednesday, regularly hold drills to keep up the skills that make treatment consistently safe.
“There’s a big difference between knowing what to do and being really good at executing it,” said Dr. Brad Spellberg, chief medical officer of Los Angeles County-University of Southern California Medical Center. “How many times do you need to drill before there are no operational errors? That’s the next level of expertise.”

It's not the responsibility of the hospitals to protect the public from Ebola, it's the responsibility of the CDC. I know it's a foreign concept to most of you BUT if an authority instructs you to do something, and you don't do it, the authority is ultimately responsible. You are personally responsible for your actions within it, but the authority is the one in charge.

Ramyrez gets it, but simple refuses to hold the CDC accountable, cause '***'s tough' or something.
To which I would say, it doesn't matter if it's hard, they are paid by us for a service and they are performing that service poorly. Considering the seriousness of what we're talking about here, they should be held heavily accountable for it.

Personal responsibility.
Personal responsibility is the idea that human beings choose, instigate, or otherwise cause their own actions, and can therefore be held accountable for them.
You could also shorten it to this:
Quote:
Personal responsibility is the concept that an entity is held accountable for the consequences of their actions.
It sure as hell isn't responsibility for your person.
What did I first imply it was?
She is responsible for herself.
Personal responsibility isn't responsibility for your person. It is responsibility for your actions, particularly the consequences of your actions.

There is the issue of the CDC worker who was consulted and didn't bar her from flying. And that comes down on the individual or group of individuals at the CDC who were consulted, and those people probably shouldn't have jobs in that capacity as a response.
But really. If you think you even might have Ebola -- especially if you've been working with people who have Ebola -- maybe, just maybe, consider this isn't normal and is worth changing your previously scheduled plans to accomodate.

I guess for me the point is, right now, the genie's out of the lamp, so let's worry about blame later and maybe focus on getting the little *** back in there.
And then maybe incinerate the lamp.
Hospital dropped the ball in a few ways. And they didn't necessary have to, but it also wasn't the most egregious of errors because hindsight is 20/20. They've admitted as such and are doing their best to remedy the situation. I'm sure heads will roll somewhere in their system in relation to jobs.
The nurse's error of flying when she thought that she might even maybe have a horrible disease was a massive error in judgment. Frankly one she shouldn't have had to consult anyone about, but given that she did, it exposes some serious errors in judgment by individuals at the CDC as well that needs to be remedied.
But all of these things have happened. Again, authorities need to worry about any remediations later and focus on fixing the situation now.
It was the only logical decision after Katrina. I mean, Bush clearly didn't care about black people. And the Superdome was the Republican answer to disaster aid. Namely getting mugged, raped and left to die.
Thank God for Obama, he'll probably just drone strike the Ebola victims. They are a threat to national security afterall.

I don't use it incorrectly, I am personally responsibly for telling people to question their faith in authority. (we're always exercising our personal responsibility - it was tongue in cheek to your attempt to argue against a straw man)
I doubt the authority of cops frequently, that doesn't mean I ignore their lights behind me on the highway. One can still doubt their authority while they are exercising it.
The point is that you completely absolve the CDC of any responsibility in the fact that this woman (whom there were responsible for watching) was told by them that she could safely get on a plane with no cause for worry.

The hospital is primarily responsible for providing medical care to their patients. How can you insinuate that the hospital is responsible for keeping the public safe from Ebola when only 4 hospitals in the US are properly equipped with isolation units to do so?
There are protocols for this, they weren't followed. The hospital is at fault for the 2 infected nurses. CDC will be at fault if someone got infected by the nurse on the plane, from textbooks, she shouldn't be contagious with only a small fever as symptom.
So far, you can't blame CDC unless someone on the plane got infected. If nobody on the plane got infected then CDC made the "correct" call letting her take the plane.
There was no Ebola in this country until the authorities allowed it to get in here in the first place. They are charged with keeping us safe, they are clearly incompetent at their jobs.
EDIT: The hospital said that CDC guidelines were followed, and that additional guidance and clarity was sought.

Direct quote "Vinson was not told that she could not fly," said the spokesperson.
She was not barred from flying. She also wasn't given permission to fly (according to that quote).
Should the CDC have exercised some federal statue and barred her from flying? Are they allowed to do that in this situation? What if she only had a cold?
Guidelines say that she is to avoid public transit for 21 days after treating an ebola patient. She shouldn't have gone to Ohio on a plane to begin with and if she was constantly in contact with the CDC they should have emphasized that point multiple times.
But there are no penalties setup for disobeying the guidelines.

The solution is to completely close your border and cancel all flights until Ebola is eradicated from the world? I hope you are aware it could have been someone from any nationality who would have transmitted it.
It could have been, but it wasn't. You're right, it could end up being like the enterovirus that all the illegals brought up from Central America. That's all over the place now, kids have died from that. Do you really not see the danger here with president open borders and other liberals insisting on an America with no borders?
We should take measures to keep ebola out of the country. We should also cease the ridiculousness of proclaiming it isn't a threat, or that we're monumentally prepared for it when it clearly isn't true. Obama told west Africans the other day that Ebola wasn't something you could get on a public bus. Today we're banning suspects from taking mass transit.
