Ebola

[Icequeen]

What a drama queen.

A nurse who was quarantined against her will in New Jersey after treating Ebola patients in West Africa will not obey officials' instructions to seclude herself at home in Maine, she and her lawyers said on NBC's "Today" show and in the Bangor Daily News.

One of the nurse's lawyers told CNN on Wednesday that they are trying to work with Maine officials to avoid escalating the situation.

The nurse, Kaci Hickox, returned to Maine on Monday after New Jersey authorities released her from a hospital tent where state officials kept her over the weekend as part of a new quarantine policy. She hired a lawyer and spoke out about her isolation and was then transported to Maine.

She has twice tested negative for the virus.

Maine officials have said that they would ask Hickox to quarantine herself at home until the passage of 21 days from her last possible contact with an Ebola patient, adding that they would make it involuntary if she resisted.

"Today" show host Matt Lauer on Wednesday asked her whether she planned to follow guidelines and finish that quarantine on November 10.

"I don't plan on sticking to the guidelines," she said. "I remain appalled by these home quarantine policies that have been forced upon me."

Send her "special" little ass back to the Ebola zone already. I bet they miss her.

But rather counterproductive.

Oldest spent the first three weeks of military in quarantine as swine flu suspect; told her good. False alarm, life went on, everything's fine.

The difference, though, is that most of the people that would be quarantined are medical professionals.

You have a society that encourages this sort of thing, from the legal action to the TV appearances. This is par for the course.

This drama is about fear, mostly unfounded.

Good.

Not particularly, if you want to have them continue helping out.

Fear: North Korea will quarantine everyone coming from abroad for three weeks.

China apparently barely checks people coming in, and has trouble with hygiene in hospitals on top of that. Could be a new place for a bigger outbreak.

Maybe for healthworkers keeping track of their temperature for an elongated time would make sense. Some people have high temperatures by default, others have low temperatures by default. The latter could have a fever not noticed via protocol figures, where the former may be contained in quarantine when nothing is wrong.

They could be quarantined to continue to help the infected.

In the case of the legal eagle nurse, apparently the equipment and method used at the airport was less than adequate. I get that they don't want to physically touch every individual at the checkpoint but they should know that it limits the usefulness of the test.

Not certain the country of circumstance matters.

It's all a ancient alien plot

I got curious when I read that Israeli medical experts are training doctors in several African countries ( Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, etc.) how to fight the deadly virus Ebola. Why Israelis would like to help Blacks whom they have been calling them “cancer” in Israel and are expelling them from Israel to other African countries like Uganda? Where the heck Israeli medical personal learned how to fight Ebola virus when there is not case of Ebola reported in Israel so far? The only logical answer to these valid questions, is that Israeli medical advisers are there to harvest human organs as they’re accused of doing in Haiti, Kosova, Ukraine, India, Palestine and many other places.
