Nothing like a little fear-mongering either, eh?

Second person now tested positive for Ebola in US.

This is a healthcare worker who treated Duncan. My question is at what point did this person treat Duncan. Was it on his first or second visit to the hospital? If it was on his first visit, then how many more people are at risk? If it was after he was quarantined at the hospital on his second visit should we be questioning our level of preparedness.

Article says that the patient worked with Duncan when he was admitted, then later says they don't know if the infection was passed on his first or second visit. Seems unclear, but maybe this was a person in admissions, someone not typically suited up?
Chaos theory and unpredictable system failures reign despite our best efforts in any endeavor.

Whether our efforts are in patient care, infection control or firearm safety, we can only mitigate risk - not eliminate it. Thus, all of life becomes an assessment of risk and benefit, cost versus return, potential for harm versus potential for good.
What should guide our decisions? Who should decide?

Not to worry. I heard from a little mouse that it is not that easy to transmit. I have it on good authority that that this worker was Duncan's American lover and they swapped spit and copious amounts of bodily fluids. It is the only way that ebola can be transmitted so easily. Nothing to worry about you bunch of panic mongers.

What about all the other people in the ER those two visits? The naysayers aren't very good at basic math

No matter how you slice it that hospital is in trouble, from joint commission to CDC to medicare, to whatever other group who wants to bleed them for dollars by violating a bunch of standards.
Okay, who wants in on a pool to guess the number of cities that will have a diagnosed case within 30 days. Only US cities with populations greater than 50,000 count and a metropolitan area counts as a single city. I'm guessing 12.
I wouldn't play this game, though I am an ardent gambler. I don't think they will ever report an accurate number in this country until all avenues to deny and deflect have been expended.
I do predict that all the people so eager to point out the absence of danger, or the "good" that can come from treating patients here, allowing it in the country, and just general "it isn't dangerous here" crowd, they will soon dive the sub and have a lot less inclination to "educate the masses" to their brand of thinking.
About to be some chronic cases of egg in face, on one side or the other.
Boston is in the running. Man who had recently traveled to Liberia has ebola-like symptoms.
Man With Ebola-Like Symptoms Reported At Braintree Clinic
Some local municipalities are putting sanctions on hospitals Ebola wastewater. The problem is before the hospital i.e. Using other restrooms home and such. Low ph kills Ebola. High organic loads protect it. A spray of .05% chlorine kills it. No oxygen kills it. Emory hospital left waste in the commode treated with bleach and flushed. The solid waste was collected and transported by a third party and incinerated. This is scary because many larger hospital's are dedicating autoclave units to these patients rooms and frying the virus before flushing. Some hospitals says they don't have the budget for this. There is always a money trail somewhere. Scary times ahead folks. One thing is for sure know one has definite answers concerning Ebola and wastewater.

THIS is how it will get out of hand:
"The NBC News crew exposed to Ebola were forced into mandatory quarantine after chief medical correspondent Nancy Snyderman violated their voluntary isolation to visit her favorite soup restaurant, reports revealed.
The 62-year-old was one of seven people ordered to cut off all human contact for 21 days on Friday as doctors treat the station's cameraman Ashoka Mukpo for the deadly disease.
It emerged this weekend that the crew would have been allowed more freedom if it weren't for Snyderman's alleged trip to Peasant Grill in Hopewell Boro, New Jersey, on Thursday.
