Texas Presbyterian admits breakdown

The hospital says it "fell short" several times in treating Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan, starting by not asking the right questions in the ER. When the Liberian native came in with a fever, the nurse wrote down he "came from Africa" but didn't specify which nation, the hospital says. A physican wrote Duncan was a "local resident," with "no contact with sick people. No symptoms of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea."

Duncan's family is angry

Duncan's family is upset that Texas Presbyterian refused for weeks to release lab results that would have shown the effects of the experimental drug, brincidofovir, that was given to him, according to the Associated Press. The family told AP the hospital also changed the "consent relatives" who were overseeing his care and stopped providing them with medical information.
