But the cure rate of the several US citizens that were transported back to the US for treatment is 100%. The hospital triage nurse totally dropped the ball when he first went for treatment and he was then sent home. If I read correctly, he told her that he was from Liberia yet somehow this information did not transfer down to the rest of the staff.
I have heard that same thing, Jodi. Being desperate for treatment he comes here. Now only goodness knows how many people were infected. Praying no one else will come down with it. Hope the professionals get this under control.
