As the Ebola epidemic grows, the sight of biohazard suits has become almost commonplace. That’s why social media has been buzzing over an image from the medical transfer of Amber Vinson. The nurse, who is the latest person in America to contract Ebola, was being transferred from Dallas to Emory University Hospital in Atlanta by medical airline Phoenix Air.
In addition to Vinson, who is wearing a yellow biohazard suit, there are four other medical professionals assisting her boarding while wearing full protective gear.
The mystery man is in street clothes and holding a clipboard. He’s not wearing any protective gear such as a mask or gloves.
