This is how they ended up with various live viruses in vaccines. Yes, heat will kill it. SUSCEPTIBILITY TO DISINFECTANTS: Ebola virus is susceptible to sodium hypochlorite, lipid solvents, phenolic disinfectants, peracetic acid, methyl alcohol, ether, sodium deoxycholate, 2% glutaraldehyde, 0.25% Triton X-100, β-propiolactone, 3% acetic acid (pH 2.5), formaldehyde and paraformaldehyde, and detergents such as SDS (20, 21, 31-34). PHYSICAL INACTIVATION: Ebola are moderately thermolabile and can be inactivated by heating for 30 minutes to 60 minutes at 60ºC, boiling for 5 minutes, gamma irradiation (1.2 x106 rads to 1.27 x106 rads), and/or UV radiation (3, 6, 20, 32, 33).

We get experts on different fields or facilities on here all the time....but they usually lead off with that. "I worked on the design team for Emory Hospital..." etc. Then we have people who come on here and spout all kinds of "facts" with no source about facilities that are not exactly public information. How does this guy know these specific details about this facility? If someone is an expert or has links to material, that's awesome. But I'm sorry.....if you just paste a wall of text with no credibility or reason why you would know that information, I'm forced to assume you're likely going off a script. AS a civil engineer, I can tell you that Ebola in the sewage system would be killed at the point of discharge if everything is working normally. HOWEVEVER. If its a combined stormwater system that experiences overflows....no, it won't be killed in an overflow event. Also.....huge risk of infection to the workers who constantly interact with the sewage system BEFORE treatment. They would be at risk of infection for whatever period the virus could survive without a host (which I think is on the shorter side) Also...because its not my area of expertise and I'm not a shill with a script....I can't speak to a hospital's internal systems. |

It appears to meet the CDC standard for containment of aerosols in hospitals, but offers no safety for aerosols generated during sewage treatment to plant workers, sludge (biosolids) haulers, or those exposed to Filoviruses (ebola) in reclaimed sewage effluent used as irrigation on parks, school grounds and food crops as well as the users of sewage sludge (biosolids) used for the same purposes. Laboratories are required to disinfect all hazardous pathogenic (infectious) waste before releasing the waste into the environment for Disposal however, in this case some misinformed Military Officer within the Federal Public Health Service (yes, it is a military organization embedded within every federal health protection agency) assured the doctors that general waste management practices at a sewage treatment plant will kill any virus in blood, shit or urine that’s flushed into the waste water system.

Dear Genius, Could you please send a memo to Bruce Ribner, M.D. Emory Clinic Assistant Professor of Medicine Emory Health care Network Physician Specialties: Infectious Disease (Board certified since 1976) Internal Medicine (Board certified since 1973) Because his words are, and I quote "Their bodily waste, including stool, will be flushed into the public sewer system. Ribner said there was no risk of transmission to the general public because waste management practices will kill any virus that’s flushed into waste water. “The U.S. public health service has established that that is an effective way of dealing with these viruses,” he said. “Whatever comes out of the public sewer system should not be contagious." Now, since Dr. Bruce Ribner is apparently taking responsibility for both of these patients at Emory, you should let the fine doctor know exactly how their sanitation systems are supposed to work. PS. Might want to send a memo to the CDC and The U.S. public health service, because their guidelines for handling infective and contagious liquid waste, as linked in the AUG 1 post, reflect that same error. I would also recommend that you put in for a promotion, your talents are clearly being wasted as a Maintenance Engineer. :LPSEV: Nobody wants Atlanta's Ebola |
