I think the article is oversimplifying a bit. The author keeps asserting that CDC standards are met, and perhaps in the case of Dr. Brantly they were, but according to all the media reports most health workers in Liberia don't even have gloves, let alone masks and goggles. Costco and Sam's Club could get some great PR by sending in shitloads of nitrile or latex gloves, as well as surgical masks. These countries do their best with what they have, but it sounds like what they have is very close to nothing. I don't have a problem with skepticism, but I think this doctor/writer is presenting a minimal amount of evidence that points in one direction in contrast to a lot of evidence that points the other direction. That said, if ebola makes its way to the US or Europe (there was a report of a guy in Ireland, but I don't know what happened with that), I sure as shit hope they treat it as if it's a BL4 contaminant. Better safe than sorry.
