Ebola: The TV media is performing their usual spin to create fear - TopicsExpress



          

Ebola: The TV media is performing their usual spin to create fear about the Ebola virus. True, Ebola is serious and the TV media should be educating rather than inciting insecurity and uncertainty. A nurse practitioner was interviewed on Fox News reporting that 60% of ER nurse dont know the protocols for triaging and securing individuals with Ebola type symptoms. Rubbish!!! IF ANY ER nurse doesnt know protocols, that ER nurse knows the appropriate resources on where to obtain and implement correct infection control protocols. Hospitals, in the US anyway, have Quality Assurance and Infection Control departments to assess effectiveness and manage these very situations. Hospital in NYC just performed disaster drill. The health care teams are ready IF or when the need arises. Google the CDC/ ebola and find tons of helpful accurate information.
