An emergency room nurse who treated a fellow nurse who contracted the Ebola virus in Dallas is taking time off and retained a noted Fort Lauderdale plaintiffs firm rather than return to work.

Briana Aguirre, 30, contacted Robert W. Kelley of the Kelley/Uustal firm after concluding Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital was not adequately protecting staff from the lethal virus, Kelley said.

With Kelley by her side, Aguirre was interviewed Thursday by Matt Lauer of NBC's "Today Show." She told Lauer the biohazard outfits given to nurses left a 3-inch gap below the chin that potentially allowed contaminated fluid to travel to the mouth and nose.

The CDC guidelines before this all started didn't call for any headcovering at all

Briana thinks she just hit the lottery.

She did.  If she lives, she will get millions.

for not getting a virus?  where's the liability?

[jafo2010]

Stan, as usual grasshopper, you are not tuned in.  The liability is the failure to provide proper attire to protect against the virus.  Then there is the failure to properly diagnosis the lying b*st*rd with his first visit.  And I am certain a god lawyer can think of ten other things the hospital failed to do in the details.

By their own admission, they had a systems failure.  Really?  In 2014?  Nonsense!

you realize that this woman isn't sick, and was never sick, right? 

that tends to prove that the hospital did provide proper protective attire to her.
