I'm talking about the video.

Elena Dementieva for one, and the women in the audience.

Oh look, another "black women look like men" comment. This is what we're talking about when we say that black women don't experience femininity the same way. Our bodies get coded male by default (which is actually super transmisogynisitc when you think about it, see: Joan Rivers' comment on MObama) and it's used as an…

Well, when your self esteem is based on feeling better than a certain group then of course you lose your mind when someone of that minority group challenges your false sense of superiority.

And unfortunately I'm used to trans-phobic racist "jokes" when it comes to Venus and Serena. French Journalist have been doing them for more than a decade.

Yeah, I feel the same way. Like, I love Tina Fey, but her book would look pretty stupid in this chart. I don't think Bristol Palin needs to be protected or whatever, but this seems kind of spiteful.

this article just seems kinda mean. I wouldn't want to be compared to Malala either.

I think that's a bit harsh. I think she was given the impression from her employer that all was ok and that she would be protected if she followed the correct safety protocols. I think she was wrong to fly but surely her employers should have given her a quarantine plan that detailed how she should spend the next 21…

Thanks, and I entirely agree. I don't think ANYONE should be automatically canonized due to their career choice, but there's definitely a weird, militarized fetishistic and gendered aspect to how we treat people who die or get injured on the job who are police/military/fireman versus other vocations and I think in…

THIS should be the story, not how she was travelling to sort out her wedding. I wish more people were reading your link. It seems as if the nurses were treated as disposable.

yes, thank you! she was just going on with her life outside of work. this woman, who was basically guaranteed that she wouldn't be at risk (if she uses PPE properly, which im confident she had), should be able to do whatever the hell she wants without our judgement.

As a nurse, I face much more deadly (at least in terms of # of deaths) and contagious diseases every.single.day. Flu, MRSA, VRE, C.Diff, Tuberculosis, Measles, Disseminated Herpes Zoster. Heck, I even had a patient with an unknown intestinal parasite from a third-world country. We had to put his poop in biohazard bags…

That would be a VERY short incubation period. I'm not saying don't worry at all, but it takes between a week and 21 days to show symptoms once you've been exposed. It it very likely that the student threw up for one of many other reasons, including their own anxiety about being on that flight. It's good that they are…

If Vinson was a cop who got injured while on the job following protocol in a situation where their superior gave them the go ahead, they would be getting a park named after them and the media would be calling them America's greatest fucking hero. And you want her to lose her license to practice?

Ebola is not an airborne virus. Unless every single person on that plane and every single person she interacted with in Cleveland had direct contact (to a mucus membrane!) with her bodily fluids- blood, sweat, urine, saliva, breast milk, or feces- calm down. They need to talk to her family members, who she sat next to…

So much misplaced anger here. The CDC and the hospital should have had clear protocols in place, which they did. However, I think we are learning more about the virus and how it spreads, which might render those current protocols ineffectual. I'm not angry with this woman. If she followed the procedures as laid…

Agreed... she probably booked these tickets well in advance and her trip could have been for anything. I can't imagine she wouldn't have been any less willing to travel up there to hang out with friends or something. Saying "she risked infecting everyone to go plan her wedding, ugh" does make it sound trivial, but how…

Reports say she frequently flew to Cleveland to visit her mother. She probably would have boarded that plane even if the visit wasn't specifically wedding related. THE CDC GAVE HER THE ALL CLEAR TO FLY. Let's not turn this into "idiot woman ignores the obvious because OMG WEDDING."

This, thank you. Between being female and being black, the whole damn world is already looking for a reason to blame this woman. There's really no reason for Jezebel to join the party.

You are not infectious while you are incubating the virus but you aren't experiencing the symptoms - it's only when you become ill that the virus is transmitted. So it's not as bad a situation as you are painting. I feel sorry for her over and above her illness because people are basically accusing her of being…
