Kaci Hickox, a nurse who treated Ebola patients and threatened to sue New Jersey over being quarantined before she was discharged, today threatened to sue Maine if officials there do not lift a 21-day quarantine restriction.
“I will go to court to attain my freedom,” Hickox told “Good Morning America" today via Skype from her hometown of Fort Kent, Maine. “I have been completely asymptomatic since I’ve been here. I feel absolutely great.”
Maine's health commissioner said Tuesday night the state will "pursue legal authority if necessary" to keep her quarantined.
Hickox, 29, arrived at Fort Kent Monday, but is not staying at her home. She was discharged from a New Jersey hospital after spending the weekend quarantined in an outdoor isolation tent at University Hospital in Newark, New Jersey.
The Doctors Without Borders nurse was checked by officials at Newark Liberty International Airport Friday after arriving from treating Ebola patients in Sierra Leone. Hickox says she believes the temperature that officials said prompted her detainment in the hospital isolation tent was incorrect.

Its all about ME.
The problem would not be in being put into quarantine, but if at the end of the quarantine period, they refused to let you out...
Calling Andy Warhol ...has it been 15 minutes yet???
A complaint to the board of nursing might sober her up. There are rules a nurse is bound to follow no matter what situation they are in. If she could credibly put her self and others in a situation that harm and illness could occur, she is violating the conditions of her license. She could threaten to sue the board but they’ll just freeze her license until ‘investigations’ are complete.
Good point, except I didn't pose any questions.
One man’s insanity is another man’s sanity.
No dude, you're out there by yourself on this one. You are not even coherent on this issue.

Ebola Barbie, she may run for governor, just don't shake her hand.
One could potentially contract Obola doing that.
But yes, I am as concerned for her safety as she is for ours.
Throw her on the ground.
Rocket her to the moon.
Burn her on a woodpile.
Staple her to a wall.
Disembowel her with a lawn rake.
Drown her with a pot of tea.
You are too kind.
Put her in a jail cell with ebola patient's waste for a month.

Throw her to some lions.
Put her in some machinery.
Waterboard her.
