The 'expert' at the BBC says it's pretty hard to contract it.
How did the health worker get it then? In his xmas stocking? And the victim landed in Glasgow? But has been moved to a secure isolation unit. Which is in the London Hospital, Whitechapel. That's Scotland's nearest isolation unit?  |

I would be a bit worried if I had travelled back on the plane with her.

I'd be that worried if I went out there in the first place, that I'd see a psychiatrist.

Shipping out Ebola patients to London? Better together right enough.

It seems she's in the Royal Free Hospital, which is in Hampstead, not the London Hospital in Whitechapel. We wouldn't want her to leave the Whitechapel hospital and wander around contaminating people, would we? |

"The 'expert' at the BBC says it's pretty hard to contract it.
How did the health worker get it then? " Apparently you have to be in contact with someone who has got it and showing the symptoms. So travelling back on the same plane as her when she didn't have a temperature or any symptoms, the risk would have been pretty low, but obviously who wouldn't be worried ! The poor woman who has got it was only trying to do good and she was a volunteer healthcare worker. Hope she pulls through, apparently this isolation unit she has been taken to in London is the most top level place for her to be and to treat her. And now another suspected case in Cornwall on the morning news. |

"The Royal Cornwall Hospital said a patient had been admitted and is currently undergoing a series of tests, one of which is for Ebola.
A spokesman said the results were not expected for 24 hours and the patient was being looked after in isolation. It is understood the patient recently returned from a country affected by an outbreak of the virus." |

Ive been visiting in Treliske Hospital over the last week.
Do Chit Chatters think it's too late to invest in a Ebola Suit |

By:
good post hound dog, but i fear you may well have your work cut out trying to educate some of the simpletons that frequent the b/f forum.
i hope the nurse makes a full recovery, a brave and selfless person. |

Absolute idiot of a woman. Going to try and help Ebola patients abroad but instead spreads it to another country risking a new outbreak. |

Did she use toilet on flight from Heathrow to Glasgow, if so, who used it after her.

Yes how brave and selfless. Spreading a contagious virus to a new country and putting hundreds of peoples of lives at risk.

maybe the CIA are already developing their own ebola bomb for those pesky muslims |

..unshrewd dud, this caring soul has not spread any disease... ps, get youself some oven gloves, paper suit, and a pair of wellies if you feel threatened. She has carried it to an area where it never was and the only reason she may have not spread it will be down to the efforts of the real brave and selfless efforts of people whose job it is to treat and contain it. Going abroad to help people with Ebola whilst working in the 'red zone' then jumping on several planes and carrying the disease in to areas where it hasn't previously been is just idiotic. |

She could have gone on tube, sneezed in the faces of numerous people and we'd be in big trouble

Going abroad to help people with Ebola whilst working in the 'red zone' then jumping on several planes and carrying the disease in to areas where it hasn't previously been is just idiotic. So you think it was a deliberate act? What about the thousands of other health workers fighting this disease? Must they remain forever in the affected areas? |
|
By:
No, they have to go into a quarantine area for 3 weeks to see if they are infected.

No, they have to go into a quarantine area for 3 weeks to see if they are infected. TBH I haven't read the story so what happened in this case? Why wasn't this person quarantined? |
