Only a forehead scan done by a customs agent showed her to have a fever of 101. When her temp was taken by a medical professional shortly after that her temp was 98.6.<<<<<<<<<

I believe the Dr. in NY who recently came home from W. Africa and came down with Ebola was not running a temp at first. While he rode in a taxi and the subways, went out to eat and went bowling, he finally felt fatigued and then was diagnosed with Ebola. Thanks a lot, Doc. What part of that does this nurse not understand? Her attitude is arrogant and selfish, and most professionals would gladly “do no harm” until cleared by quarantine.

If she wishes to expose herself to disease to help others, more power to her, but she should have the decency to follow the rules and spare others. It's all about her, “look at me, I'm special”.

You said that much better than I could. Thank you.

This lady is kind of coo coo imho.

She has been in a totally ravaged country. She knows what it looks like. So what if we take an abundance of caution here to keep things under control. Maybe she is right and things don’t spread that way. Who cares?? Why take the risk.

I asked myself how I would feel about a quarantine. If I had the risk of infecting family and friends and maybe putting them in quarantine, maybe putting my pets at the risk of quarantine or worse...and maybe having all my stuff destroyed....yeah, I think I’ll stay in a hospital.

(and I say that as one that can’t stay away from home without crying.)

It’s not like it’s for months...it is 21 days.
