Since Pijares' death is well outside the three-week maximum incubation period, it does not seem to make sense to link the nurse's infection to him versus the much more recent patient, which is squarely within the time window we would expect.
Three other individuals are also suspected of Ebola infection along with the nurses confirmed case. It does get worse. The nurse when feeling unwell i.e. symptomatic, asked for an Ebola test multiple times but was refused and was told to go on Holiday, only to be tested 6 days later after before becoming progressively more ill.
Considering the PPE kit and the protection barrier procedures undertaken then either the nurse was either infected 47 days ago with very few virus particles or received a heavy dose of virus 12-13 days ago.
Either way the policy of bringing Ebola infected individuals from west Africa needs to be halted even without getting into the criminal negligence issues being carried out by the Government authorities.
