Eric Duncan First Ebola Diagnosed Victim In The US Dies. by greaterlove(m): 4:51pm On Oct 08, 2014
I just got this from CNN that Eric Duncan just passed away. There has been some questions on my mind, it's not really on the quality of the health sector in America but the cost and how it's made for a select group.
A Man came in from Liberia and is showing symptoms of fever and stomach pains and all the medical team could think of was that he is not covered by insurance. They gave him antibiotics and sent him home.
Fine good medical care cost money but there should be exceptions, Duncan might still be alive if the medical team responded immediately but who knows, maybe like some Americans they didn't even know Liberia is in west Africa after all to CNN Nigeria is in Niger and to a presidential candidate in America Libya is in the Middle East.
