I am not blaming her for her work; her work as an ICU nurse is incredibly admirable. Way more admirable than what I do for a living.
I am questioning the wisdom of traveling when you’re self-monitoring for a contagious illness. I just feel like we are seeing a TON of lack of common sense on many levels with this outbreak. I’m totally willing to believe she wasn’t told not to travel (how could you even tell these folks not to travel, when we’re letting Liberians travel...), but I feel like everyone involved has been showing in spades what years of sheep-like adherence to the government will do to a society when a crisis hits.
My point is ... if we require everyone who might have treated an Ebola patient at a hospital to self-quarantine and not travel, I’m guessing many of them will say “screw it, it ain’t worth it, I can work at a nursing home until this blows over.” I might in their shoes.
I don’t blame her because she is young, was recently a student (hence used to digesting and believing what she is told), and bought the CDC bullshit she was told on how she was at Extremely Tiny Risk and all that.
