mt sinai pt speaks about suspected ebola

The ebola virus is rocking the world, the first suspected American case having popped up at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York. Fortunately it was a false alarm and patient, Eric Silverman, was released from quarantine after 3 days in the Manhattan hospital. Silverman had just returned from Sierra Leone in West Africa, when he reported suffering from symptoms similar to infected victims. The Brooklyn native is now retelling his dreadful experience, from his time in an isolated room in an intensive care unit to having doctors treat him in “space suits”.
