Yes its the dumbest thing to do , if you go to help them and bring the flu back that is been dumb .

Can't you see that ?

LOL you make it sound like she actively went out of her way to get herself infected.

You seem to be very ignorant about how basic skills are acquired. Or how the acquisition of said skills would benefit you.

Also by your logic, ANYBODY who volunteers to take care of someone in a war zone, disaster zone, etc. is a dumb bitch nurse (or doctor, soldier, family member etc)

Everybody on this page by your estimation = dumb bitch? www.who.int...

I'm sure its more than that IMHO. Hospitals are not set up to really keep people in like say a psych facility most are setup with the basic premise that the vast majority of the patients will stay because they are sick and need treatment. If you want to go there is little to stop you. That being said you would think they would secure the section of the hospital where they are keeping plague victims.

They can put you into protective custody here in the US if you are say have active TB and will not take your medicine etc. Sounds like they may need to do so here.

Nobody likes needles myself included but I like dying less

Madagascar plague death toll rises to 195 and cases have jumped nearly 3% in just three days as 'worst outbreak in 50 years' of the medieval disease hits 'crisis' point

The Madagascar plague death toll has risen to 195 with a jump of almost 3 per cent jump in cases in just three days, official figures reveal. Some 2,267 people have been struck down by the 'medieval disease'; a rise of 64 casualties since the 2,203 cases reported last Friday, according to World Health Organization (WHO) statistics.

International aid workers are desperately battling to contain the 'crisis', which has been described as the 'worst outbreak in 50 years' and has prompted 10 nearby African countries to be placed on high alert by the WHO. Experts have expressed fears doctors are so focused on controlling the plague epidemic, they may neglect to participate in nationwide vaccination programmes against polio, which may trigger an outbreak of the paralysing condition.

Doctors and nurses may also be unable to treat plague patients if they themselves become infected, which would inevitably cause the outbreak to spiral further out of control, experts add. Treatment may be further stilted if the plague's bacteria become antibiotic resistant as healthcare staff frantically over prescribe drugs in an effort to calm the disease's spread, experts say.
