Spanish News | Madrid Nurse Diagnosed With Ebola

Page 1

The Spanish Health Ministry confirmed this week that a 44 year old nurse in Madrid has contracted the deadly ebola virus .It seems that she had been nursing two men who had returned to Spain for treatment .They had been working in West Africa .Both men died .This nurse was due some leave and then stayed at home but soon became unwell . Now most people who had been nursing an ebola victim would hear alarm bells ring but not this woman . She visited her doctor locally and never mentioned that she had been nursing someone with this disease .She worsened and called the emergency services and once again these workers were never given information about ebola so they treated her at the scene and took her to the hospital without wearing any protective clothing .A litany of disastrous happenings . Doctors at the hospital in Madrid are now saying that they were not ready for this and that the protective clothing they have is not good enough to protect them from this virus .Also they say that they didn´t even know how to put on these suits and that they become incredibly uncomfortable after about 20 mins .There is a feeling that their lack of training in just putting on and taking off these suits might have caused a transfer of the virus . The husband of the nurse and a number of other people are being isolated and regularly checked to see if they have the virus .The family dog was also destroyed in case it also had contracted the disease .This has caused a great deal of unhappiness for the family .
