If Doctors and nurses who are extremely well versed in Bio Hazard protocols and working in cutting edge Western Isolation facilities are being contaminated then....
erm....cutting edge? says who?

Canada: Saskatchewan Health Authority says "We're Ready". Nurses say "No We Aren't"

Alberta Health says "We're Ready". Nurses say "No We Aren't"

Ebola fears need to be addressed among Alberta nurses, says union - Canada - CBC News

etc.

Sound familiar?

From my personal experience at a Canadian University. Hierarchy says "We are fully prepared for major evacuation" . My experience on the ground was that the procedures had never worked in practices (not even close), but they were written up as if they had as you were subject to disciplinary action if you said otherwise.

Both Integrity Commissioners appointed to protect whistleblowers under this Act have been problematic. The first, Christiane Ouimet, found zero cases of employer wrongdoing and zero cases of reprisal against employees in three years (and 1,700 cases), and then retired, disgraced by the damning findings of an investigation by the Auditor General. Her successor, Mario Dion, has done little better, exploiting weaknesses in the law to do as little as possible and to leave whistleblowers to their fate.


Silencing people who point out dangerous flaws works really well, right up to the point you meet reality, then it all goes horribly wrong very quickly.
