I’m more concerned about how the police knew the NYC doctor was lying to them about his where-a-bouts. Do you know? Apparently, they confronted him with receipts of his spending. That tells me they violated this man’s privacy. What law did they rely on for that? Should they have obtained a warrant? Who signed off on that if they did obtain one? Why is there no information on it? Is the lack of information because we are behaving so alarmed over ebola scares that we aren’t paying attention? How would you feel if one person came in contact with ebola and the authorities decided to shutdown your entire block and make everyone stay indoors. Isn’t that what the nurse is standing up to? Scrap the science; let's play it safe. All this fear being bantered about will lead authorities to violate our rights (for our own good, of course.) Isn’t that the way it usually works?
Can we trust anyone in this country to apply a little common sense. The only ones to have been affected and infected by ebola are those that actually came in contact with body fluids, specifically blood and urine--not from riding a subway, or sharing a bowling ball or even from being within sneezing or hugging distance.
