Officials say it was NOT Small Pox after all:
HOLLYWOOD – Memorial Regional Hospital's emergency room was put under lockdown for a short time shortly after 7 Friday morning over worries a sick patient was suffering symptoms similar to smallpox, a hospital official said in an e-mail release.
Infectious disease experts at the 690-bed hospital and trauma center quickly confirmed that a patient complaining of a high fever and a skin rash was not suffering from deadly smallpox. They did not say what the patient suffered from.
As part of standard procedure, however, the hospital's emergency room was reported closed off for 30 to 45 minutes while doctors diagnosed the symptons.
Let's hope they are telling the truth. Of course, there is greater attention given to such stories these days, but I don't recall ever hearing of such a scare previously.
