I doubt any upcountry government or private hospital has any facilities for treating Ebola victims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyBobThai Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) I hope that these containment units have air conditioning. It would be a bitch, to have to spend two weeks, in a room here in Thailand, with no A/C. Edited August 22, 2014 by BillyBobThai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomyummer Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 The photo says it all. The doctors and directors do not look happy with the decision of authorities in choosing their hospitals. Like receiving a death sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
