Nurse Kaci Hickox Vows to Stay Away From Public Places, Apologizes to Her Town [VIDEO]
Mediaite ^ | 11/3/2014 | by Andrew Desiderio

Kaci Hickox, the nurse who was quarantined despite testing negative for the Ebola virus after returning home from Sierra Leone, said this morning on Meet the Press that she will stay away from public places in her Maine town, and apologized to residents for the media firestorm that has erupted.

Upon landing in Newark, New Jersey, she was forced into quarantine under the new regulations put into place by New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, and has since defied those orders and returned to her hometown of Fort Kent, Maine.

Even though a judge ruled that Maine Gov. Paul LePage can not impose a quarantine on her, she told Chuck Todd this morning that she will not go near any public places in town. Residents have witnessed a media firestorm in their town, and Hickox apologized for that while standing by her criticisms of Gov. Christie.

“I understand that the community has been through a lot in the past week, and I do apologize to them for that,” she said. “I will not go into town into crowded public places.”

Hickox also said the focus should be on science rather than politics, and that Christie’s actions were based on “an abundance of politics.”

Hickox also told Todd that she hadn’t seen her cameo on Saturday Night Live last night.

There was a survey published today that said an overwhelming number of people wanted possibly infected health-care workers quarantined - involuntarily, since they won’t abide by it voluntarily - and I think maybe little Kaci is realizing that her stupid Obama-motivated political stunt backfired.

The guy at the pointy end of the stick is the local judge. If he guessed wrong, he’s finished as a judge.

in 1666, the local Lords of London would make a quarantine decision, then appoint locals to carry out the order, there were individuals appointed to pick up the bodies and to deliver enough food to keep the entire family under the watch.

Still digging, Kaci? Isn't that sinkhole deep enough?

I wish her to heal, but that would be the most appropriate justice for this ordeal.

Leftism is a crime against reality.

Turns out this Ebola Barry wasn't the heroine in her home town that she thought she'd be. Good.

Someone in the admin probably told her to stand down because it was drawing too much attention to the fedgov bringing ebola to our country.

That was my first thought as well-
she’s started to show symptoms and had an epiphany.
