Important Ebola News Coverage: Watch Dr. Sanjay Gupta Rub Chocolate Sauce All Over Himself

10.15.2014 | News | Matt Fox |

How dare critics claim CNN isn’t the Most Trusted Name in News? They’re delivering significant and critical information on the Ebola epidemic on an hourly basis. Take their Chief Medical Correspondent, Dr. Sanjay Gupta. After watching the video above, you should have no doubt in your mind whatsoever that this man deserves every Emmy he earns.

In the internet-exclusive clip, the good doctor demonstrates the proper use of Ebola personal protective gear, including how to both put on and — wait for it — take off the clothing.

And then, Dr. Gupta rubs a bunch of chocolate sauce all over himself. Because, you know, he’s Sanjay Gupta.

The chocolate sauce was intended to represent an Ebola contamination. However, it kind of just made me hungry. I don’t know if the CDC has learned any valuable lessons from this video, but at least Gupta had a chance to relive his kindergarten days. It’s just a shame he didn’t invite Anderson Cooper to join in.
