Nina Pham, the Texas nurse who tested positive for Ebola after caring for the now deceased Thomas E. Duncan, appeared in a fearwell video to the other healthcare workers that cared for her. She invited her physician, Dr. Gary Weinstein, to “come to Maryland” with her.
“Party, party in Maryland,” Weinstein joked.
“Thanks for being part of the volunteer team to take care of our first patient. It means a lot,” Weinstein told Pham as she teared up. “This has been a huge effort by all of you guys. We’re really proud of you.”
Pham was transported to the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Md. on Thursday for further treatment.
