Turns out she is all kinds of special. Whole lot of special.

She's an angry feminist.
A politically active Democrat Party Liberal from Maine.
A federal employee with the CDC.

No wonder the POTUS sought special privilege exemption, having Gov. Cuomo and Christie backpedaling from their quarantine rules for people returning from W. Africa.

Somebody with this many checkboxes checked shouldn't have to play be the rules of your average hoi polloi. Good on her for being able to call in the angry feminist, fed gov. employee, DNC minion markers to buck the rules. It's outrageous that she would be subjected to the same rules as our military personnel returning from W. Africa.

Of course the media cleaned it up a bit to have you believe she's your non-descript average person.

Angry Feminist seeks exemption from Ebola Quarantine

The quarantine is not "draconian," it is a reasonable measure to protect Americans

Hey, I'm just referencing the wording of the Angry feminist nurse subjected to the quarantine. Are you denying her right to expressive verbiage? Fighting words....

What are the conditions, anyway?

I think she should be quarantined, but I'm not so sure about a tent. What are the conditions there? Does she get running water? Heat? I think a lot of us would be bitching without running water and heat, if that's the case. (Not sure if it is.) I'm not saying lift the quarantine, but make things a little more comfortable, if that's not happening yet.

Source about getting a blood test before going to the hospital? I know he self-monitored himself when he got home.

Wow. So knowing this, she STILL insists on being released? This is serious.

I wouldn't argue with her if she wants more comfortable conditions than what a tent can provide. But she needs to be quarantined.

There was a recent University study that questions whether or not 21 days is long enough....but Obummer thinks 21 days id too long.

Potential public health risk for a contagious disease.

Did you miss the part where the military are being automatically quarantined after returning to the U.S. from Ebola infected areas for 21 days? By the same administration applying leverage to have her discharged after returning from an Ebla infected area? We're talking double standards here...

First google link is Wall Street Journal from 3 hrs ago, says "Ms. Hickox is expected to self-quarantine at a rental home she shares with her boyfriend in Fort Kent, Maine, a rural potato-farming community about three hours outside Bangor, the closest city, said Fort Kent Town Manager Donald Guimond."

Second google link is from NY Times, "Her boyfriend, Ted Wilbur, a nursing student in Fort Kent, Maine, said that Ms. Hickox, who is being kept in an isolation tent with a portable toilet, but no shower or television, had not planned on speaking to the news media but changed her mind after Mr. Christie said on Saturday that she was “obviously ill” when she knew she was not."

Yes, the standard is 21 days; however, it has been "self-quarantined" in the US. She was the first to be held without really showing the symptoms of having the disease. She originally had a high temperature; however, her temperature went back to normal.

I'm on her side...The quarantine is not the issue, but the conditions are....She has tested negative for the virus and is asymptomatic, which does not warrant putting her in an unheated tent in a parking lot with a porta potty. It doesn't even have a shower, based on what I've read..... An asymptomatic patient should be quarantined at home with 24/7 supervision/monitoring to ensure it is adhered to.



Sorry, but this was a purely political decision (the tent bullshit), rather than one based on medical fact or science. I’m curious, why isn't the staff currently treating the infected MD at Bellevue quarantined? After all, they are also in direct contact with Ebola.........It’s all Politics.........

Absolutely should have been quarantined, but I have mixed feelings on the tent bit.  On the one hand, I assumed the quarantine facilities were a quite a bit more substantial and First World-ish - like a real building with HVAC, electricity and running water, internet/tv, etc.  The quarantine time could have been spent writing her after-action reports and telecommuting.  On the other hand, what sort of accommodations did she have in W. Africa?

So, people who have been exposed to the disease should be permitted to mix in with the population until we are absolutely certain they are contagious?
