    Kaci Hickox, a nurse placed under mandatory quarantine in New Jersey, went on CNN on Sunday and criticized the knee-jerk reaction by politicians to Ebola. Hickox, an epidemiologist who was working to help treat Ebola patients in Sierra Leone, has tested negative twice for Ebola and does not have symptoms, she said. Hickox told Crowley that mandatory quarantine is "not a sound public health decision" and that public health officials, not politicians, should be making the policies related to Ebola and public safety. "For the first 12 hours, I was in shock. Now I'm angry," she added. On Sunday afternoon, Norman Siegel, Hickox's attorney, told CNN that he will be filing papers in court for Hickox to have a hearing no later than five days from the start of her confinement.

    Although these precautions seem to be inhumane and unfair i think they're doing the right thing. Even if someone may not have ebola if they do have the signs for it they should be in quarantine for other peoples safety. It is better to take the necessary precautions rather than be at risk.
