I don't think it's fair to say the people who disagreed with you are "scoffers." I personally was not scoffing at your opinion. I just held a different opinion about our ability to handle the situation, and still feel that we can safely keep an outbreak at bay when any health worker comes home, without having to "imprison" them for 21 days if they're not sick. Lessons were learned all around from Texas. Plus we needed stricter monitoring, of returning health workers, and we got it.

I do still think the media whipped this into a frenzy.
