A real portrait in courage (sarcasm intended )
Our declaration outing this woman just crossed the finish line.
We need ebola like we need Muslims.
I agree. They basically are the same thing. JMO.
You’re on the wrong forum.....
I'm as socially conservative as you can get. I'm not a knee-jerk ideologue as are many here.
These nurses and doctors should see it as part of their professional duty to their fellow citizens to endure a little discomfort to help get the protocols refined.
What ever happened to the ethics of the medical profession. Arrogance and greed?
Doctors Without Borders was complaining earlier this month that the international response to the ebola crisis has been so small and slow in coming that they have been unable to keep their people safe. Now, I guess, they are trying to bully us (with the most noble of intentions, of course) because that sort of crap actually works on us!
Lost a LOT of respect for Doctors Without Borders through this (and am wondering at this point what has been promised to Kaci Hickox).
Glory points for spending a month in Hell’s maw of #Ebola but I suppose there is something to be said about heroic 21 days spent in New Jersey ...
The nurse currently quarantined in New Jersey is an employee for the Centers for Disease Control and a registered Democrat with a history of left-wing advocacy, and did not disclose her ties to the CDC in the anti-quarantine column she wrote for the Dallas Morning News. The CDC opposes any and all quarantines because Obama told them to, and the nurse is simply a CDC/Obama mouthpiece.

My brother who lives in Kenya and in health field, travels lot in Africa and Europe. According to him -
- Ebola can be transferred by bodily fluid, moisture in air duct etc
- I have asked him , why people living with Duncan are free from Ebola ?
His response - As soon you come in contact with Ebola patient, start taking anti-viral medication. He was saying in Quarantine they must be receiving these tablets. If you take medication you will be fine. But if you skip after 21 days Ebola is sure shot.
According to him, death toll is very high in Africa, WHO numbers are way low.
” But if you skip after 21 days Ebola is sure shot.”

So how long do you take them?
.
and her with all those parades and welcome home parties to go to right off the plane..
and all those disappointed little people who have worked for months to make each event a glittering success...what of them ???
they dont get to have her shadow fall on them from afar...they don’t get to hear of her sacrifice and glory from her own 2 noble lips..
SOB
O the shame !!!
New Jersey should be run out of the Union !!!
Surely someone with any common sense at all would expect a higher level of medical scrutiny when returning from a region with that level of viral fatalities.
>>>>” But if you skip after 21 days Ebola is sure shot.”
14 days
For any FReeper who is interested, here’s the Wikipedia entry on the Black Death, how it came to Europe in the middle of the fourteenth century by several plague ships, how it spread from the initial hot points, and now it exterminated a huge part of the European population:

Ebola could get a hold here and do the same thing. Quarantine of the affected areas and of potentially infected persons is the only reasonable response.

I am all for mandatory quarantine, but keeping her in a tent in a New Jersey parking lot with a portable toilet and no shower is kind of ridiculous.
She could easily be quarantined in her own home (if she lives alone) or in an apartment. Ebola is not magic. It is a “fluid borne” pathogen (and pretty easy to kill). She needs to be kept away from contact with others, but she needs to be comfortable too.
Ane we’re to assume this individual took all necessary sanitary precautions in treating highly infectious Ebola patients??? Looks more like she’s at the top of the list for sloppy Ebola workers who might get infected and pass it on to others.
