As a follow up to the post of last week on the Ebola scare and making sure that you are well informed.
The CDC (Center for Disease Control) has released an “Interim Guidance for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Systems and 9-1-1 Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) for Management of Patients with Known or Suspected Ebola Virus Disease in the United States” web pages to help alleviate fears and generally give guidance about how to protect against the Ebola virus.
The page is a pretty comprehensive guide to what Ebola is and isn’t, how it is contracted and how to protect against it.
It is designed primarily for emergency personnel such as EMS and 911 responders but the information is applicable to everyone.
