If the “science” says there is no reason to quarantine — then why are GIs going to be held in quarantine when the return form West Africa?

The reason is giving in the above article:

EXCERPT:

Maj. Gen. Darryl Williams told The Associated Press that the decision to isolate returning troops was taken to ensure their family members’ comfort, even though he none are showing symptoms, and he does not believe any soldier under his command is at risk.

Speaking by telephone from a U.S. base in Vicenza, Italy, Williams said he and his soldiers will be living in isolation under controlled monitoring during the three weeks it takes to be sure Ebola hasn’t infected them. Williams returned to Italy Sunday with 10 soldiers with another 65 due back in two groups by Saturday.

It’s just “normal concern,” Williams said. “There was nothing elevated that triggered this increased posture.”
