The man observing Wednesday’s transport of the Dallas nurse without a hazmat suit on was a “protocol supervisor” who wasn’t wearing protective gear for a “higher level of safety,” an airline representative said.
“Our medical professionals in the biohazard suits have limited vision and mobility and it is the protocol supervisor’s job to watch each person carefully and give them verbal directions to ensure no close-contact protocols are violated,” a Phoenix Air representative told ABC News. “There is absolutely no problem with this and in fact [e]nsures an even higher level of safety for all involved.”

Errrr.
This sounds an awful lot like this moronic statement: DC says nurses infected with Ebola wore too much gear
Clearly they're revising the playbook as we roll.

We should just face the facts that those in charge of this Ebola crisis are totally clueless. I quit trusting anyone with my safety or the safety of my family a long time ago. The level of stupidity from those in charge, from Obama on down, is amazing. It's almost as if they want a crisis....?

The explanation makes sense as long as hes wearing gloves and a respirator. He did look a little close for comfort, but they need someone with an eye out to help them remove the suit, etc. I would say most cases of care workers are due to poor removal of contaminates garb.

On a shopping trip to the city a backwoods farmer bought a 24-piece jigsaw puzzle. He worked on it every night for two weeks. Finally, the puzzle was finished.
"Look what I've don, Jess," he said proudly to a visiting neighbor.
"That's surely somethin', Willard. How long did it take you?"
"Only two weeks."
"Never done a puzzle myself," Jess said. "Is two weeks fast?"
"Darn tootin'," Willard said. "Look at the box. It says, 'From two to four years."
I don't think they are clueless at all.
As a matter of fact, I believe they know exactly what they are doing. Well, errrrrrr, at least those at the top

Maybe someone should explain the protocol to the protocol supervisor, or maybe this is the protocol.
ETA He must of went all 4 years in college, because you can't get that dumb in 3.
