I have been following the case of spoiled little Kaci Hickox in Maine - she refused quarantine after returning from West Africa where she was working with Ebola patients as a nurse. Things just got interesting.
From Maine television station WAGM:
State of Maine Document Reports Kaci Hickox’s Roommate in Africa Developed Ebola
Sheila Pinette of the Maine CDC has released information that the roommate of Kaci Hickox, while in West Africa has displayed signs of Ebola. Pinette says “The respondents roommate in Africa became infected without knowing how she became infected with Ebola. (Any potential risk to respondent from that incident has passed).” This is one of 35 points Pinette made while filing a verified petition for public health order yesterday with the state.
Kaci Hickox was issued temporary court order. The document says Hickox must submit to active monitoring, coordinate her travel with public health authorities, not use commercial or public transportation, not go to any public places or workplaces unless to receive necessary health care, and she must maintain a 3-foot distance from other people and not leave Fort Kent without consulting public health authorities.
See if she obeys this. Talk about putting people at risk just because quarantine is not convenient...
