Looks like another Presbyterian Hospital lie

[BillB]

Presbyterian Hospital had told us that Nina Pham's condition was
"good".

Here's what the doctor at Maryland said today:

NIH physician Richard Davey, who has been treating Pham, said she is sitting up in her room, which is attended 24 hours a day by two nurses.

"She's interacting with the staff, she's eating -- she's able to interact freely," Davey said.

She said Pham is "doing quite well compared to what we were told about her status at the other hospital."

What were they told about her status by the "other hospital"? Presbyterian evidently told Maryland something different than what they told us.

Great post. Great question.

But, how can that be? We were told Ebola was a virtual automatic death sentence! There is no antidote! It's sweeping the continent of Africa killing 70% of those it infects!

Ebola's killed 20 percent of those infected in the United States.

Source?

The fingers of one hand.
There have been 5 Ebola patients treated (or being treated) in the US.
One of them died.

Then the correct answer would be 0%. Patient zero was infected in Africa.

I don't comprehend a lie.
Presby said she was in fair condition. New hospital says she is in fair condition, weak ' cause of the trip.

Presbyterian didn't say Fair Condition. They said Good. This was on Oct. 14.
Update: Texas Health Resources upgrades Ebola patient Nina Pham’s condition to ‘good’

The Maryland doctors said she was in Fair condition and at the same time said she was better than what Presbyterian had told them.
Presbyterian had been saying one thing to them and something entirely different to the public.
