Nina Pham Heading Home

Dallas nurse, Nina Pham, cured of Ebola, is heading home to Dallas from NIH in Bethesda — after a stop at the White House to meet President Obama.

Amber Vinson, the other Dallas nurse infected by Thomas Eric Duncan, has been declared free from the disease, but remains in the hospital in Atlanta.

Good Ebola News for Animal Lovers

Bentley, Dallas nurse Nina Pham’s dog, has tested negative for Ebola.  He will be tested again before his quarantine is up on November 1.  Um, Spain, this is how you do it.  I’m guessing Teresa Romero’s dog, Excalibur, would have been Ebola negative too, but we’ll never know for sure, will we Spain, because you irrationally rushed to kill him.

Pham herself has been upgraded from fair to good at NIH in Bethesda, MD.  I’m looking forward to seeing her reunited with Bentley.

 

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.
