How does a doctor/surgeon native of Sierra Leone, a doctor that happens to be a legal resident of the U.S., goes 13 to 14 days with Ebola, treatment delays and not until the 13th day receives Zmapp and a plasma transfusion from an Ebola survivor???

Doctor with Ebola dies at Nebraska hospital

Washington (AFP) - A surgeon who was infected with Ebola while working in his native Sierra Leone died Monday, becoming the second patient in the United States to succumb to the hemorrhagic virus.

Martin Salia, 44, a legal US resident, was infected with Ebola while treating patients in his home country. The virus has killed thousands in West Africa since the start of the year.

Salia was flown to Nebraska for treatment on Saturday, but doctors said he was unresponsive by the time he arrived, struggling to breathe and his organs were failing.

"Dr Salia was suffering from advanced symptoms of Ebola when he arrived at the hospital Saturday, which included kidney and respiratory failure," the Nebraska Medical Center said in a statement.

"He was placed on dialysis, a ventilator and multiple medications to support his organ systems in an effort to help his body fight the disease."

Salia, who had been ill with Ebola for 13 days by Saturday, was also given donated plasma from a survivor of Ebola and the experimental drug treatment ZMapp.

Twelve hours after arriving in Nebraska, he went into complete respiratory failure and his blood pressure dropped. He died around 4:00 am (1000 GMT) on Monday, his medical team said.

EBOLA VIRUS DISEASE PROGRESSION

Typically, Ebola virus infection runs its course within 14 to 21 days. Infection initially presents with nonspecific flu-like symptoms such as fever, myalgia, and malaise. As the infection progresses, patients exhibit severe bleeding and coagulation abnormalities, including gastrointestinal bleeding, rash, and a range of hematological irregularities, such as lymphopenia and neutrophilia. Cytokines are released when reticuloendothelial cells encounter virus, which can contribute to exaggerated inflammatory responses that are not protective. Damage to the liver, combined with massive viremia, leads to disseminated intravascular coagulopathy. The virus eventually infects microvascular endothelial cells and compromises vascular integrity. The terminal stages of Ebola virus infection usually include diffuse bleeding, and hypotensive shock accounts for many Ebola virus fatalities (for reviews, see references 9 and 28)

A doctor's mistaken Ebola test proves potentially tragic

Just stop and think for a moment, what happens when a mistaken Ebola test proves potentially tragic, a Federal government contractor with Ebola enters the U.S., is NOT QUARANTINED and mingles with a population of U.S. citizens/non-citizens?

Obama Indemnifies Gov't Contractors From Damages Arising from Importing Ebola to US

In other words, if a Company A employee contracts Ebola while working in West Africa, brings the disease back to the United States, is not quarantined and ends up infecting members of the general public, Company A is protected from any damages arising from lawsuits by these secondary victims.

According to the USAID spokesperson, employees of these contracted companies "provide essential services, including medical and non-medical management of Ebola patients."

In his memorandum, Obama justified his actions by citing Public Law 85-804, which allows the president to give any federal agency or department connected to national security the authority to enter into, amend or modify contracts with private companies in order to “facilitate the national defense.”

Commercial flights, from the hotzone(s) of Ebola, must be banned and QUARANTINE must be MANDATORY.

Fearful Mali places almost 600 under Ebola surveillance

US authorities on Monday began enhanced Ebola screenings of travellers from Mali, adding it to a list of three other west African countries -- Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea -- where the measures were already in place.

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in a joint statement with the Department of Homeland Security, said Mali was added to the list "because there have been a number of confirmed cases of Ebola" there in recent days.

Perhaps those that claim the Ebola virus outbreaks are waning would like to take a stab at explaining U.S. Ebola readiness and the executive ruling?

AP IMPACT: If Ebola batters US, we are not ready

The U.S. health care apparatus is so unprepared and short on resources to deal with the deadly Ebola virus that even small clusters of cases could overwhelm parts of the system, according to an Associated Press review of readiness at hospitals and other components of the emergency medical network.

We do have a cure according to NBC news and other network news:

Bill for Ebola Adds Up as Care Costs $1,000 an Hour

The care provided Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan may have cost as much as half a million dollars, a bill Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas is unlikely to ever collect.

Duncan had been in isolation in the hospital for nine days. "If they recognize that he has no money they will clearly just write it off as charity care," Anderson said in a telephone interview yesterday before Duncan's death was announced.
