The chances of an Ebola Outbreak here in the United States are extremely low. It seems however the only thing is the amount it takes to catch it. The dallas hospital a major metropolitan Health Center sends a man home who tells them he is from west africa all of the while presenting symptoms consistent with ebola. The hospital then sends him home while contagious to live in his familiar lace apartment which family refuses to follow the Health Department quarantine by sending their children off to school. Today a Healthcare Worker not even one of those prioritized, but cdc is at risk who had all of the benefits of the protective gear con twrakted the virus. Reminiscent of the doctor and nurse who also con tracteded the virus in west africa they, too, used all of the precautions in suiting up. Noticeably absent in the press conference ance announcing the new case of ebola was the cdc. They opined there was a preabre in protocol and the handling of such cases will be forthcoming. Now you are going to make changes in a protocol that obviously wasnt working that you said was working that you said we were not supposed to worry about. I have to worry where the hospital gets the changes understands the changes and implements the changes. I am not even convinced the hospitals have the protective gear to have the ebola waste whether it is doctors, the nurses or the maintenance people. They can tell you not to worry, they can tell you its not going to happen, but dont worry be happy line doesnt work any more. Start worrying. We have a problem. A potential crisis. So far it has been screwed up twice. We have an issue. Can you really rely on our Healthcare System . Can you rely on the cdc to tell you the whole truth . If you havent been worried, i think its time. Tonight we are going to hear from doctors who have differing opinions as to how easy it would be to contract the virus. Is your family at risk is one hospital better prepared than another . Can pets contract it . Can you contract it from your pets . If you take one thing from this show tonight it is that you need to take charge of your familys healthcare. Not assume for one minute somebody, anybody has you covered. That is my open. Joining me now is reporter james roads. What is the latest on the new ebola patient . I can tell you they are referring to the patient as patient number one. Thomas duncan was patient 0 the man who had ebola. We know she was a nurse in close contact with duncan while he was in isolation here. We dont know anything more about her condition except that friday evening she had a flight fever and was exhibiting ebola like symptoms so she came immediately to the hospital. We are told immediately taking her temperature she was here in isolation. You mentioned earlier these folks are not at risk. Everyone at risk associated with this disease. They were allowed to self monitor themselves because they are healthcare professionals. They were not a part of the larger cdc group monitored by the cdc. She is here and we do not know her condition except all they will say is she is stable. At last word we heard she had mild ebola like symptoms. The cdc today confirmed, the cdc this afternoon confirmed she didnt have it. The headlines the people of dallas were quote sad and angry. The population in general. Are they worried . People are concerned and they are watching out, but as they said all along if you were in direct contact with duncan you are probably okay. They even made the point where you might have seen judge jenkins the man heading up the Dallas County side of the operation he drove with louise duncans fiancee he rode in the car 45 minutes with him he went into the apartment that was still being decontaminated. He did that to send a message saying the only way you can contract this is if you get some kind of body fluid on you. They are pretty much sticking to that. They want to see what the breech in protocol was. They are taking a closer look at everything from the time before you go to the Isolation Chamber when you strip off that gear how is that what are you doing with that gear . James, thank you so much. With me fox news medical a team members dr. Mark seigel and dr. Samati. Whiff tom fre we have tom fren announces he has a five part plan to prevent what happens in dollas from ever happening again. I want you gentlemen to think about this. We have the dallas hospital sends a guy with symptoms from west africa home. Then we have a healthcare nurse who is suited up wearing all of the protective gear. She ends up contracting the virus and now they have a new five point plan that they are going to implement heres my3ke question to you, are we stumbling our way through this . You tell me. Judge listen, fear comes from a lack of recent leadership. We have a situation where people are not being transparent enough with us not being responsive enough and not being responsible enough. Talking about centers of Disease Control now. I know the centers of Disease Control well. I think there is a problem with them taking over the situation. Doesnt matter when you are out there with errors. Errors make people afraid. They dont make people afraid some people die. They make people have a lack of belief that somebody can protect you. It is totally different. I am making a serious point. If you cant trust somebody to protect you you think you could be next. It doesnt mean you are going to be next. What i care about, doctor, is whether or not the cdc knows whats going on. I have talked to them they need to be more transparent out it. What are you saying . You said they need to be more transparent. I would like them to come out with the name of the person. I dont care about that. I want her name out there so we can know hwho to contact. You are moving to the next group of people. Is the cdc ding open with us and truthful . We dont want people to panic but we have to use this case of mr. Duncan as a case report. From the beginning that he decided to come to the u. S. He went through the screening. The question is, were you exposed to ebola the answer was no. Right there there was a problem. Went to the screening. He lied to get here. He still showed up at the hospital with all of the symptoms. We are going to get to that. The first five days there were no fevers. Went through all three screenings. The system is not ready to take care of these connotations. Why did he go . He had a fever 5, 6 days after. He comes to the emergency room and we are not completely prepared the travel history wasnt a part of it. He told them he was from west africa. I want to keep going over this. I think the hospital totally screws this up. He has abdominal pain he comes from liberia you send him home with an antibiotic . This is a Major Hospital in dallas not a small town. You know what i want to tell you my friend. This is exactly what let me tell you something. This morning, heres todays lesson. Heres todays lesson. Yes, doctor. America patches ebola taking care of a patient who has ebola in a dallas hospital with the centers for Disease Control overseeing the situation when they already know and we already know that if they are very actively involved. They know how. They dont want them involved. I dont want them involved. Tom freiden says, you cant get this if you are sitting next to someone on a bus. She was a Healthcare Worker. I am talking about the cdc. One thing that came up i asked mark this morning. We are going to continue this conversation with more on tonights breaking news on ebola. Hearing of a texas nurse infected with ebola, are you worried now . Facebook or tweet me at judge jeanine. Me to start investing for my retirement. Transamerica made it easy. [ female announcer ] everyone has a moment when tomorrow becomes real. Transamerica. Transform tomorrow. Whats in a can of del monte green beans . grown in america. Picked and packed at the peak of ripeness. With no artificial ingredients. Del monte. Bursting with life. Ebola is not spread in the air like the flu. You cannot get it from casual contact like sitting next to intun on a bus. The president doesnt seem so concerned but according to what i read a human can be infected if they come back with bodily fluids or contaminated objects from infect the persons. We are back with the medical a team dr. Mike seigel and dr dr. Samadi. Also dr. Bob arnot. I want to finish another thing with these two doctors. Can you contract the virus if you are sitting on a bus next to someone who has it . The likelihood is low. The question is can you . If theres a cut, if you touch your ears or nose it can. If someone sneezes on my hand and then who has the virus and i rub my eyes i got it . You can. Thats one of the reasons why i asked this morning on sunday house call, why this camera crew from nbc, how did they get this infection . The nurses in spain brought her glove that was contaminated to her eye and got it. Now we have the preach of the protocol saying she took out the gown and got contaminated. I agree with you. Do you not agree with that . I want to the sicker someone is with ebola the more virus they have with secretions the easier it is to contact whether you are getting blood, vomit or diarrhea. Somebody sitting on a bus, the problem with that is, i will never say never, here, judge. The problem somebody sick enough to have virus in their sweat or tears or saliva is not going to be healthy enough to sit on the bus. It is very low. Doctors across the country are sitting exactly where you two are. It is easier to get or difficult to get. Doctor bob arnott i am going to go to you. You have been in countries where this is a problem. You are in Infectious Disease. Is the cdc even capable of identifying and delineating what needs to be done given everything that we have seen over the last two weeks . No. The interesting thing, your honor, is this, they are not in charge of that. They dont have any authority to go in to the infected hospital. They are excellent i have been around the world with them. Dr. Seigel is saying you are not going to get it from someone talking next to you unless they have a ton of virus. I had a patient cough on them dead within the week the other touched a patients skin dead within the week. The big problem here is this. Public Health Authorities are trying to reassure us. This is hard to get. That is it is going to be caregivers and family members and those preparing bodies for burial who are going to be exposed to the virus. If you are not exposed it is not going to spread rampantly. If you are close a lot of vomit and blood and feces. Theres a ton of virus and you dont have to get much. The appalling thing, judge, is this poor nurse being blamed for breaking protocol which she contact tracted the virus at the hospital 80 percent of nurses have not been trained in this country with interactive protocol. This poor nurse should have been obamaed someone should have made sure she was doing the right technique. Heres the bottom line. There is nobody in charge. Theres no one in charge in west africa where 18 percent of patientses are being treated in liberia. 40 percent are sierra leone. We need somebody in charge. In the United States. Maybe the president. Maybe homeland security. You cant take diseased and say you are in charge. Somebody has to be charged with stamping the virus out in west africa and somebody needs to be in charge of protecting us in the United States. No ebb is in charge. Doctor arnot this is an issue that is endemic in africa and is becoming aint national issue. Isnt this something where the International Community should have a coalition on how to deal with this . Look, judge, coalitions you believe this work . The World Health Organization was mamazing. It answer ee if is rated. The budgets have been slashed. They may not be capable. The United States is the only part to go in there and really make a difference. I completely agree with this comment about the nurse we should care about her. But her caring and her fear for this patient with ebola may have been what caused her not to take the proper precautions. What do you mean because she was afraid . You are afraid and you are worried and you are panicked. She was wearing everything. Whoa, whoa. Let me finish. Howho was in charge. A i think i can understand how she got exposed to the virus. Dr. Arnot made a great point for the federal government to take it over, it may not be the cdc we need the feds to take it over. Every time the feds take it over it gets messed up. Dr. Samadi. Theres no one running the show. Even though i am a great surgeon i am not an expert. You have a virus that has no vook seen. You have 70 percent that are dying from it. The guy just said theres nobody in charge. Close down the nonessential flights until we figure it out. You misinterpreted. No, i did not misinterpret. You have to stamp out the epidemic. You still have all of it. We dont have it. We have two patients in the United States that got it. We are just getting started, doctor. Thats not the problem. Dr. Arnot what did you say . The vaccination is 6 months away. The centers of Disease Control is saying this epidemic is about to spin wildly out of control with over a million cases it may be the epidemic doesnt go away. It may be in west africa admittedly you now have the new aids. You cant stamp this out. Thats the last thing we have to say about it. The chambers are what we say, these hemorrhagic fevers are the most worrisome thing worldwide in terms of Public Health. Needs to be stamped out in west africa and we need to be in charge. I will say mr. President got to go. Doctor samadi, dr. Seigel and dr. Arnot. Stop. Coming up. Your kids come home with a school with a fever . Should you be worried .

We realize this is something we need to worry about and prepare for. With me dr. Nina radcliffe. Dr. Radcliffe, thank you for being with us. Whenever my kids used to start school in september they would come home with a flu and cold september, october, november then i would get it and everybody in the house would get it. What do parents do now . We have a child die in michigan, one in new jersey of enterovirus. What do parents do what do they look for and when do they take their children to the hospital. Children love to share germs. I am worried for my daughter a 3yearold in preschool about enterovirus. I am not worried about her checki catching ebola. Enterovirus is making a comeback. What is it . There are 100 varyites. This takes it in the lungs. Kids can have difficult breathing and can get paralyzed. They dont know the mechanism and we dont know how to stop it. You say ebola is not endemic to the United States. What do you mean by that . These children are not exposed. I was reading as some of your thoughts you saying well you are not concerned about ebola. I am on guarded condition for it. Thats not what we need to be worried about we need to be worried about the seasonal flu and enterovirus. If they are having difficulty coughing, breathing, if they are having diarrhea and vomiting these are concerns for kids not just for kids with ebola but in general terms. When we talk about this, lets stick with ebola for a second. Are you surprised that the nurse who contracted it in dallas . I am surprised about that. There is a protocol. When there is a protocol followed we should not be able to contract this. We have to figure out where it was. These are Healthcare Workers putting their lives on the line. If we have a second case which we likely will we need to make sure the doctors, nurses, staff they have to protect themselves. Patients deserve to be treated. Whats interesting is there is an organization, i think it is the i have the notes here National Nurses organization that says something like, 79 percent of the nurses havent had any training in any of this as it relates to ebola. The krscdc is going to be implementing new rules a five mount plan as a result of what happened in dallas. Do you think the Healthcare System is ready for this . We have to have all hands on deck. We need to get everybody involved. They say the ebola system is not only the only indicators and its not just bodily fluids but its the virus that can last for hours, and you take your hand for example you go to the coffee shop someone sneezes on the counter you get your hand down to get the coffee you wipe your eye or mouth or whatever, you cant catch can catch it. That is bodily fluids if you have secretions. Thats saliva. Even though it may be dry on the counter they are saying the virus still lives. Viruses can live outside of the body for a period of time. Thats a concern. Thats a real concern. Do you plan to see people Wearing Masks on airplanes . With the seasonal flu they will likely be wearing that. I am worried about seasonal flu and things like enterovirus. Those are the ones i am concerned about. Thank you for being with us this evening. Coming up todays new show, how well the dallas hospital handles ebola. What happens when somebody walks into the clinic with symptoms . I go inside an urgent care system to find out. Thats next.
