Everybody here should read the link in the afticle where this nurse has described some of her experiences. This is the scariest, and most revealing, line:

I recalled my last night at the Ebola management center in Sierra Leone. I was called in at midnight because a 10-year-old girl was having seizures. I coaxed crushed tablets of Tylenol and an anti-seizure medicine into her mouth as her body jolted in the bed.

It was the hardest night of my life. I watched a young girl die in a tent, away from her family.

OMG! She was directly, intimately, and by hand treating a highly infectious patient in the last moments of that patient's life. Indeed, she was doing so at midnight when fatigue and the powerful emotions of the event could have caused her to be careless in sanitary procedures. If there was ever a health care worker who was exposed to Ebola at its most virulent and infectious, she was it. No wonder she's in quarantine, and THANK GOD SHE IS, even if she was somewhat inconvenienced. She seems to think being an Ebola nurse somehow entitles her to put this whole country at risk. What an incredibly reckless fool.

People who experience those sorts of things do not blather it out to strangers. They internalize it to the general public, and share it in small limited doses among groups or persons close.

I smell a PR campaign working this woman. Perhaps our new Ebola Czar controlling the message?
