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.”

Chicks dig jerks.
Sorry, he's already taken.
Yes, I think that was the whole motivation.
She figured she'd be embraced as a media darling, she'd get to be a guest on Jon Stewart or get interviewed by Rachel Maddow. She probably even had dreams of a book deal or public speaking gigs.
She miscalculated two things though - first, liberals don't want to get ebola either and felt she should have been cautious. Secondly, like most people in her shoes, she had no idea that her likeability hovers pretty close to zero. I've known people like her, who flit through life never knowing that people find them really really annoying and go out of their way to avoid them socially.
She should call the waaaaambulance!
PING! and DANG!
Obama is a “Chubby Chaser”.
call me a progressive arrogant liberal B***ch!
Hey lady.....you wanted attention, so here it is. You will always be the EBOLA NURSE!!
Dear Ebola Nurse,
You are called the Ebola Nurse because you wanted to be famous
and now, you are the Ebola Nurse.
Ebola Nurse Recognition in TN
I think you pretty much nailed that description
Thas one bish i would not let make a samich for me
She didn’t violate any state mandated quarantine.
The article missed her exact quote in the Guardian op-ed, ‘I never had Ebola, so please stop calling me “the Ebola Nurse” – now!’
I love her demand at the end. She continues with her air of superiority.
So, how about calling her “Her Royal Highness Ebola, The CDC Drama Queen Who Wants Her Way Or Else She’ll Throw Another Tantrum!”
Hmmm...that might make a nice children’s book title. I think I might write one!
Go call senator ma’am and complain, Ebola nurse.
No nurse that I’ve ever met (and I’ve met a lot of them) would ever have done what this narcissistic bitch did. So, in my book, she’s not a nurse.
She is...the narcissistic Ebola so-called nurse bitch.
Had she gone along with the 21 quarantine and not made waves, no one would remember her.
“She didn’t violate any state mandated quarantine.”
BS
Sorry, but your name is too hard to remember, whereas your behavior was quite memorable, so “Ebola Nurse” is naturally much easier to remember. Not to mention it suits you so well.
So, sorry, you’ll be ‘that Ebola Nurse” the rest of your life. And just remember, you brought it upon yourself. Oh, and it REALLY doesn’t help you were viciously (and hilariously) parodied on national television on Saturday Night Live. That little gem will haunt you for the rest of your life too.
Plus, I understand you’ve been run out of Maine on a rail, so you better hope you can find a state where you can disappear into anonymity.
In other words, “boo fricking hoo”, you made your bed, so lie in it.
It’s No Ebola Nurse.
No, not BS. In Maine, a mandatory quarantine can ONLY be imposed through a court order. Maine sought a court-ordered quarantine, and the judge rejected it, imposing more lax restrictions instead.
