Good News for Two of the Americans with Ebola

Ashoka Mukpo, the NBC cameraman who is being treated in Omaha after contracting Ebola in Liberia, has now been declared Ebola-free and should leave the hospital soon.

An American doctor who had been treated at Emory in Atlanta for six weeks after catching Ebola in Sierra Leone, and had requested that he remain anonymous, has now been released.

The Center for Disease Cluelessness

Nina Pham, the first nurse to get Ebola from Thomas Eric Duncan, is about to be moved from Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas to NIH in Bethesday, Maryland.  The other nurse, Amber Vinson, has already been moved to Emory University Hospital in Atlanta.

So it looks as if Texas Health Presbyterian is finally getting out of the Ebola business, which they never should have been in in the first place.

Aside from Emory and NIH, Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha and St. Patrick Hospital in Missoula, Montana have the specialized containment units and the expertise to deal with diseases like Ebola.
