MANATEE, Fla. — A private Manatee County ambulance company has outfitted one of its units to transmit a patient with Ebola without infecting the emergency medical service technicians or paramedics onboard.
The Ebola Transport Ambulance created by West Coast-Southern Medical Services is parked at the company’s home office, 934 14th St. W., Bradenton, said the EMS Chief Billy Thayer.
The ambulance was outfitted in part because the company has business partners who travel abroad, including IMG Academies in northwest Bradenton, Thayer said.
