Whether she had contact with Ebola patients or not, it's pretty unlikely she was infected. She ran a fever one time, then came back negative and had no fever. Then there was a big time overreaction. She should have been given an instruction sheet and sent on her way.

While we watch this theatre, there are 150 potential Ebola infections coming in every day with far less medical knowledge. Some will be infected like Duncan and completely clueless. Those are the people that need quarantening.

You and Cold Case are always downplaying Ebola and always siding with the ones with Ebola. This woman is playing Russian Roulette with the rest of the Amaerican population because like a spoiled brat she doesn’t want to be told what to do. If you care for Ebola patients, know that you will have to do a 21 day quarantine and in my mind they should double it just to be sure.

According to the first stories about Hickox, her last patient was a 10 yr old girl. The girl was dying & having seizures, and Hickox gave her Tylenol & anti-seizure meds.

If accurate, that sounds like contact with Ebola patients, doesn’t it?

Then again, maybe that first story was a lie, to make her more sympathetic to the public. Who really knows?
