Lots of love and prayers for all affected. Best Hc

Hmm...wouldn't traveling on public transportation in crowded major cities such as NYC be a problem for returning staff members? If colleagues & HCWs experience stress & anxiety, what about the public's stress and anxiety? ------------------------- Forgive the inability to quote. I am on...

Did you see the cc vid? Chilling. One officer hit in the arm, a second officer hit in the back of the head. Two other officers shot and killed assailant. One passerby struck by stray bullet but is thought to be fine, as is the officer struck in the arm. Officer who was hit in the head is...

I am aware of yesterday's attacks...and now this. The PM is safe. He was in Parliament building but has been evacuate. New reports that shots have been reported at the mall . Sounds like the Redeu is the name but I'm sure I've got the name wrong. Some folks have evac'd from Parliament...

thank you, beach, for cleaning up the thread. the last time I saw somebody vomit in public, I was standing outside at the airport in New Jersey. mid April sometime. This lady got out of a car looking awful pale. she stood next to me, and there was a trash can right there. She said to me...

Rube here looking frantically for my tin foil hat...last seen buried under a slew of medical and nursing texts...lol. Am I panicking? Not at all. But I *am* doing some preparedness stuff. Like extra food - canned and grains like rice and barley and beans - and extra stuff needed for a comfy...

I remember during triage training (triage also handled discharge instructions at the time) in my hospital's pediatric ER. I grabbed the next file and briefly looked at d/c orders. Meds, likely dx, follow up stuff. I grabbed my roll cart w/ BP monitor and thermometer attached. Our instructions...

***if this was one of the first responders, and he was a deputy, the list of his contacts could be enormous. For example if he was a deputy in a courtroom, the exposure could be all of the court Watchers, the inmates, the other deputies, the judge, clerk, other courtroom personnel...just in the...

Linus. Yes. It doesn't seem ad if this person was being watched by CDC or even known to them as a possible contact. Given what I've heard...as this person was not quarantine d it most likely is not one of those who are considered family. Best Hc

breaking news per Fox... New Ebola patient rushed to the hospital. Had contact with Duncan. in Dallas, Texas. More coming soon. Oh dear. Best Hc

Breaking on FOX that Duncan passed away this morning. God rest his soul. Best Hc

Thx lyra. I've been worried I suddenly couldn't count. It does help. Best Hc

I've had thoughts recently... 1. Aspirin or Tylenol can fool a thermometer pretty simply. If the world is relying on thermometers and honesty as it's litmus test for travel, we're all screwed. 2. The Spanish nun who was diagnosed today (or, that we found out about today)...how long has it...

The news is saying the flight from Brussels is STILL being held at the gate in Newark. Best HC

I'm torn. While on one hand I'm very mad at Duncan for bringing Ebola to my country, on the other hand I'm pragmatic enough to say it's here now, so what shall we do? I'm not as confident as others are the cdc will be able to contain this disease. If you look at cultural differences alone...

As I do with every thread that talks about a possible catastrophe or emergency I suggest that those of you who are not prepared, get prepared. As someone who lived in earthquake country for decades, I always have enough to go through two weeks without services. In this case I would say 3 weeks...

Oh dear. Yoda, that is simply just no good. This whole thing is just no good. I'm just very glad I am now out of "the big city"...kwim? Best Hc

I'm wondering. In conjunction with football season starting, the start of school - if he was no good in school - would also create a lot of stress for him. I mean, it would have to be a hard time of year dreading going back to school, knowing that he wasn't going to be able to do the work, etc...

There is a good reason I never used Craigslist in that area but have used them in other states...I never felt safe enough. I hope Abdullah is found safe...as for the short s and jeans, it could be that he was wearing the shorts under the jeans planning on going swimming or something...it's...
