Why are you so intent on this? How will you feel if she does become ill? How do you know for certain that she will not become ill? How does she know for certain she will not become ill? If she cared enough to go and help patients that were ill in another country, it seems that she should care enough to protect people in this country. Your idea of what is right and mine are far different.

Gracie perhaps you missed the message I posted about my personal experiences with airport security.
Put yourself in her shoes.... she is not sick, no symptoms means she cannot pass the disease to anyone. She has been tested for Ebola with a negative result.
She cared enough to put herself in harms way to help but if she is not symptomatic then putting her in isolation is NOT protecting anyone. She could be at home instead in a tent without a shower and only a porta potty.
I really don't our ideas of right and wrong are that much different however, our understanding of Ebola transmission is completely different. I am also concerned that other medical professionals will respond negatively to these rules...we have a much better keeping this disease away from our shores by treating it in Africa.
We should know more soon if know one gets sick in NYC from the doctor and this nurse remains Ebola free.
