Dallas Ebola vomit wasn't cleaned off the sidewalk for four days, and then improperly

Meanwhile, things Duncan contaminated filled 140 barrels.
The UK Telegraph, here:

Q: Was the ambulance trip to hospital handled properly?
A: On Sept 28 [Sunday] the daughter of his girlfriend brought Duncan tea in bed and found him shivering and sick. An ambulance was called. When it arrived neighbours witnessed him vomiting on the ground outside the apartment as he was placed in the emergency vehicle. No extra precautions were taken for the ambulance ride despite the fact he was Liberian and showing possible symptoms of Ebola. The ambulance was used for another 48 hours before being taken out of service. After his eventual diagnosis the three ambulance workers were told to stay home until they get the all clear. Meanwhile, it took until Thursday for workmen ... using high-pressure water jets and bleach to clean the area outside the apartment where he had been sick.
