Needed: Private Emergency Rooms

After the Liberian welfare patient gave Ebola to a nurse at Texas Health Presbyterian in Dallas, the hospital has closed its emergency room. Are employees resisting CDC diktats? It couldn’t have helped that the government immediately blamed the sick, heroine nurse for its own vicious incompetence.

Financially, all emergency rooms–mostly used by welfare patients–are a huge drain. Instead, we need fully private entrepreneurial hospitals that take no third-party payments, especially from government. And maybe we’ll get them, as Ebola proceeds.
