Ebola Nurse: Stop calling me the 'Ebola Nurse' ("I tested negative in Christie’s private prison.)

Kaci Hickox has a message for politicians: “Please stop calling me ‘the Ebola Nurse.’”

The 33-year-old nurse from Maine called out Gov. Chris Christie and civic leaders in an op-ed she wrote in The Guardian.

“I never had Ebola. I never had symptoms of Ebola,” Hickox writes. “I tested negative for Ebola the first night I stayed in New Jersey governor Chris Christie’s private prison in Newark.”

Hickox, of course, is referring to the tent inside University Hospital in Newark she was kept in upon returning from Sierra Leone, where she was volunteering with Doctors Without Borders.

Her defiance of quarantine policies in New Jersey and later when she arrived home in Maine led to a tide of media coverage.

Hickox claims Christie and Maine Gov. Paul LePage used her in a sense to further their own agendas.

“Christie and my governor in Maine, Paul LePage, decided to disregard medical science and the constitution in hopes of advancing their careers,” she said. “They bet that, by multiplying the existing fear and misinformation about Ebola … they could ultimately manipulate everyone and proclaim themselves the protectors of the people.

“Politicans who tell lies such as ‘she is obviously ill’ and mistreat citizens by telling them to ‘sit down and shut up’ will hopefully never make it to the White House.”

Well.....

I called her a lot of things, but "The Ebola Nurse" wasn't one of them.

"Arrogant" would be a start. "Crazy" is a good followup.

I'll bet that she shows up somewhere as a Dem appointment to some make-work bureaucracy.

Ebola Nurse’s loathing for Gov. Christie tells us that she’s a big lib.

So is Christie.

Okay. From here on out, you’ll be referred to as “The Ebola Selfish Bi***” to prevent disparaging nurses.

FREETOWN, Sierra Leone — When Martin Salia’s Ebola test came back negative, his friends and colleagues threw their arms around him. They shook his hand. They patted him on the back. They removed their protective gear and cried.

You can bet your life on a negative test if you like, Toots, but you aren’t going to endanger mine through your ignorance.

How about Obola Nurse?

Ebola Nurse > Frau Blucher.

[BunnySlippers]

She appears to be fixated on Christie.

“She appears to be fixated on Christie.”

She has her marching orders

OK, how does “The nurse who wanted to spread Ebola to America” sound?

[Madame Dufarge]

Ebola nurse and her boyfriend are moving from Maine.

Sniff.

Don't let the door hit ya

[60Gunner]

She doesn’t like that? How about stupid, selfish, whiney ebola nurse then?

Let the names begin!

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

Bring out your dead! The Dark Man cometh! Bring out your dead! The Dark Man cometh! Bring out your......

(Since all records of obama's past were lost in a tragic boating accident and fire, no one can be certain that the guy in the red circle isn't him...)

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

For inconsiderate chance taking with other people's lives, you have been awarded the title....

Ebola Nurse

[polymuser]

We’re terribly sorry for our lack of concern for another person.

How about The Stupid Nurse?

[grania]

How’s “The Ebola *itch”?

[nwrep]

Well, with due respect to all here, lets leave her alone. She is a private citizen who has had to endure the might of the state apparatus against her. So what if she is liberal? She is just a nurse, and has not committed any crimes. Lets stay focused on more consequential things than to keep bashing a nurse.

you have been awarded earned the title....

Fixed it.
