Ebola Editorial

1. Betsy McCaughey identifies the problem in her commentary, which is that nurses/doctors who treat personnel with Ebola are not well/fully covered enough.

2. The solutions McCaughey offers are the following: to expand capacity at the nation's four bio-containment hospitals & to protect our local hospitals, healthcare workers, and patients by relying on the nation's bio-containment facilities. 

3. Sean Kaufman, infection expert, sees the CDC's guidelines as "absolutely irresponsible and dead wrong." 

4. Representative, Michael Burgess held up a photo of CDC Chief Frieden in Aftica wearing a protective suit that covered him head to toe to make the point that the guidelines that the CDC issued for nurses and doctors here isn't great.

5. 
a.) Yes, I agree with her recommendation. This is because she is right in making the point that bio-containment facilities are built to protect patients, as well as nurses & doctors.
