Outside of the military, I never would have thought there was this much travel to Africa.

She was low risk, no symptoms, movement wasn’t restricted..and BAM..here comes the fever.

And yet that idiot in Maine is exposing people without a thought.

Oh, I guess you’re just saying you’re close to one of the other suspected cases. I’m fairly close to Portland.

Yup. And as soon as the fever came, she was isolated so that she poses no risk to the public.

And yet that idiot in Maine is exposing people without a thought.

The nurse in Maine is showing no symptoms. Like the woman in Oregon, if the nurse begins to develop symptoms, she too will be isolated so that she poses no risk to the public.

” if the nurse begins to develop symptoms, she too will be isolated so that she poses no risk to the public. “

Seems there is the potential of putting people at risk this way. I guess I don’t see the harm in being proactive.

My point was simply that the poster I was responding to did not seem to be complaining that the woman in Oregon had been monitored v. quarantined, but that what Hickox is doing now ((active monitoring, no quarantine) is the same as the woman in Oregon.
