Ouch!
The BBC has a gem: Visiting envoy Samantha Power condemns response.
The US UN ambassador unloads on the world for promising to help in the Ebola epidemic, but failing to deliver. She pours salt in the wound by praising the response of Cuba, which should annoy the hell out of a lot of politicians. She points out that the situation requires supplies and trained medical personnel, not feel-good UN resolutions.
CNN has an extended interview with Kaci Hickox, the nurse arrested at the airport for helping Ebola patients in West Africa.
She insisted on keeping her iPhone, which means that she can send pictures as well as talk to the media. The pictures in the video of her living conditions are beyond strange – New Jersey has her camping out in a building!
They pitched a tent inside a building, not the hospital building but near by, and moved in a hospital bed. She has a camping toilet, but no running water or shower facilities.
Are the medical personnel treating the doctor who was diagnosed with Ebola in New York City going to be forced to live like this? If not, why is Kaci Hickox?
