Elective Colorectal Surgery at Mulago #2

Ebola outbreak becoming more of a concern today. Although the actual outbreak is in Bundibugyo in the west, one of the treating physicians who contracted the virus was in Kampala when he developed symptoms. He was being treated in Mulago in isolation but died. We're having a lot of pressure from the UCSF Infectious Disease folks to stay out of the hospital, especially out of the operating room. It's a difficult situation, politically, given the fact that everyone else continues to work. Haven't yet decided what to do.
