They said they had protocols in place that would prevent Ebola from being transmitted to health workers: False.
Here is what "they" are actually saying:
DR. ANTHONY FAUCI:
We don't know what it is yet. The CDC team is there doing two things. One, trying to find out what that breach might have been, and to underscore and emphasize the importance of the strict following of their protocol. We have experience with Ebola dating back to 1976 with 24 outbreaks in Africa. And a group like Médecins Sans Frontières, Doctors Without Borders, they almost never get an infection because of the very strict protocols. Sometimes people are human. They have inadvertent breaches. And that's very likely what happened.
The rubes have leaped to a conclusion that the people in Texas got Ebola through the air, instead of through inadvertent breaches of protocol.
ASS-U-ME.
