Nurse without Ebola in quarantine

     Many doctors and nurses have been sent to Africa to help patients suffering with Ebola, Kaci Hickox is one of them. Hickok treated patients with Ebola in Sierra Leone with Doctors Without Borders. Although she tested negative for Ebola, she was put in quarantine.

     Over the 21-day quarantine, Hickox had been fighting against the state of New Jersey and officials. She believes that this was cruel to do to her since she did not have Ebola.

     Northwestern's school nurse, Mrs. Van Gelder, believed that the 21-day quarantine is a good safety precaution to help prevent Ebola from spreading. Mrs. Van Gelder also, "Bring patients to America is a very big danger to everyone else and it's just going to get worse." Lastly, Mrs. Van Gelder believes that in order to prevent Ebola from spreading, large precautions, such as the one taken to Hickox, are crucial for the safety of others.
