ebola pandemic

The danger from Ebola is magnified because of who the uninsured are, the working poor: the janitors, food service workers, waitresses, cooks, food servers, cleaners, cleaning ladies, nurse’s aides, bedpan cleaners, butchers, and workers in food processing plants. They are the people who are most likely to be exposed to Ebola, which spreads through infected feces and human body fluids. The two nurses in Dallas became infected by contact with Eric Thomas Duncan, who was nauseous and dying of Ebola.
