Kaci Hickox, America’s sweetheart
New Jersey’s loss seems to be Maine’s gain:
Kaci Hickox, the nurse who was quarantined at a New Jersey hospital despite exhibiting no Ebola symptoms after arriving from West Africa, won’t follow the quarantine imposed by Maine officials, her attorney said tonight.
“Going forward she does not intend to abide by the quarantine imposed by Maine officials because she is not a risk to others,” her attorney Steven Hyman said. “She is asymptomatic and under all the protocols cannot be deemed a medical risk of being contagious to anyone.”
Hickox will abide by all the self-monitoring requirements of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the state of Maine, Hyman said.
But I wonder how many people in Fort Kent, Maine are going to be eager to attend her “Welcome home, Kaci” party?
Now that Christie has washed his hands (metaphorically speaking) of Hickox—which is beginning to look more and more like a very savvy decision—what will LePage of Maine do? Treat her with kid gloves, apparently, although I wonder whether that will be enough for Ms. Hickox:
Maine requires that health care workers such as Hickox who return to the state from West Africa will remain under a 21-day home quarantine, with their condition actively monitored, Gov. Paul R. LePage said in a statement.
“We will help make sure the health care worker has everything to make this time as comfortable as possible,” he said.
The comments to the linked article are uniformly angry. Typical is this: “She makes it REALLY easy to hate her.” And that’s among the nicer ones.
From some of the statements in this article, however, it sounds like Maine may be ready for a legal battle with Hickox:
Early Tuesday evening, Maine Department of Health and Human Services Commissioner Mary Mayhew noted at a hastily called news conference that the state has the authority to seek a court order to compel quarantine for individuals deemed a public health risk.
Meanwhile, Connecticut has eight people already under forced quarantine, and we haven’t heard all that much about them:
Under guidelines issued by Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy, anyone returning to the state from Guinea, Liberia, or Sierra Leone is subject to mandatory health monitoring and may be placed under involuntary quarantine if the commissioner of the state’s health department determines they “have met the threshold for such action.”
One of them, however, is speaking up:
“I’m outraged and very upset about the impact that this policy and the subsequent policies in other states will have on the actual fight to contain Ebola in West Africa,” Boyko, a Ph.D candidate in the School of Public Health’s epidemiology of microbial diseases department, told the Hartford Courant.
We rubes just don’t understand everything there is to understand about ebola, unlike Boyko. He must know exactly how and when every single case of ebola in Africa was contracted, and that there is absolutely no chance whatsoever of someone catching it from someone in a relatively early stage of the disease, with mild symptoms and a fever. Note also his words “the actual fight to contain ebola in West Africa.” As opposed to what—the fake fight to contain it here, the one that states such as Connecticut are putting up? The one that restricts his freedom for three weeks? That one?
Boyko’s story is in some ways even more interesting than Hickox’s. When he was in Liberia he did not treat ebola patients (he’s neither an M.D. nor a nurse); he worked at a computer. But he had a meeting with Ashoka Mukpo, the NBC freelance cameraman who came down with the disease, the evening before Mukpo was diagnosed. After returning to the states he was not originally told to stay in quarantine [emphasis mine]:
Boyko said his plan was to lay low the first week back, not return to school, and rest. He didn’t do much ”” once he drove around in a car with his girlfriend to look at the foliage ”” but a few days later on Oct. 15 he developed a low fever and diarrhea.
He called doctors to tell them about his symptoms and said he wanted to wait until the next day before going into the hospital. He was convinced he couldn’t have Ebola. The disease is not transmitted through the air ”” it is only transmitted through bodily fluids ”” and it is only transmitted by people who are symptomatic. Boyko was certain his brief visit with Mukpo, who had no symptoms, could not have made him ill.
But the Yale doctors decided he should come in immediately. Boyko called his mother in St. Louis to tell her he was going to the hospital, but that he was sure he didn’t have Ebola.
That has turned out to almost certainly be correct. But what was all this initial certainty about, in the face of exposure to ebola, and symptoms? That was really playing with fire.
Hickox and Boyko are giving those who volunteer for ebola duty in Africa a bad name. I sincerely hope they are not typical of the genre. But the way they’re talking certainly doesn’t make me think these two could be trusted with a voluntary quarantine or even voluntary self-monitoring. Their arrogance, and their resentment of the very human desire to protect our communities from a scourge such as ebola, come through loud and clear.
[NOTE: It’s interesting that all this quarantine-of-health-workers business seems so far to be concentrated in the Northeast—New York and New Jersey (those make sense as places of entry), Connecticut and Maine.]

Ebola Nurse’s Ties to CDC Scrubbed From Website — Is Far Left Progressive & Obama Supporter:

I actually don’t believe they give a s*** about the people dying in Africa either.
It is so sad, but, unfortunately not surprising, that people would use the treatment of illness to score political points.
Based on the link provided by Ed, does anyone think she would be complaining if the quarantine was imposed by President Obama and the CDC?
So glad that the State Dept is spending my tax $$ this way/sarc/. One might think they were trying to redistribute the Ebola wealth to the US 🙁
“The State Department has quietly made plans to bring Ebola-infected doctors and medical aides to the U.S. for treatment, according to an internal department document that argued the only way to get other countries to send medical teams to West Africa is to promise that the U.S. will be the world’s medical backstop.”

Have we no tar? Have we no feathers?
Pitchforks? Torches?
She’s a rock star! Quarantines are for the little people.
Typical of government workers in this administration that feel that they don’t have to follow the protocols that the little people have to.
A lot of people feel guilt, but don’t recognize that they need to change themselves. So they may go to change the world via global climate change or change Africa, but it’s not going to change them. It just makes them feel better that they have a target for their guilt, so long as it isn’t themselves in the mirror.
They are guilty because they are members of the Leftist alliance, first and foremost. Secondly, they are guilty for belonging to the Hierarchy and Authority, while not deserving their own elite status due to incompetence, arrogance, and corruption. Thirdly… well it keeps on going for awhile.
PS:
Why do I think Dr. Craig Spencer and Kaci Hickox are cut from the same liberal bolt of cloth? 🙂
“Rules are for Thee not Me.”
Dr. Craig Spencer at first told officials that he isolated himself in his Harlem apartment – and didn’t admit he rode the subways, dined out and went bowling until cops looked at his MetroCard the sources said.
“He told the authorities that he self-quarantined. Detectives then reviewed his credit-card statement and MetroCard and found that he went over here, over there, up and down and all around,” a source said.

The issue on Ebola shows that our government has become non-functional. It is so large that it can not take on an important health issue. Certainly the chance of the average citizen, at this moment, getting Ebola is nil. But the concern of the population is not eased by our leadership, showing a definite mistrust and lack of faith in their decision capacity. Then there is our response. The government can not understand that it is best to confine this disease to its origin. They do not understand the simple process of negating VISA’s and passports from the effected regions (funny but the surrounding third world countries understand this principal). Then our response to treating the disease or helping the effected people is to rely on haphazard volunteer organizations. As well meaning and effective as these organizations may be, they do not have the resources or ability to treat the problem that a government would. So, our government is tell us that it can not protect or assure us and it lacks the capacity to take charge in a foreign country and do what is necessary. Actually this is nothing new. Herbert Hoover was actually a very good person, he came to fame by organizing relief efforts in WWI to help starving Belgian’s. But under this president, nothing can happen that is constructive (actually Wilson, another progressive, was the one hampering Hoover in WWI).
She does sound like she makes a funny harrumph-chirp sound when she stamps her little foot.
It’s disheartening that the people who should know best practices of risk management maintain a blissfully ignorant and irrational perspective. It’s telling that they would attempt to conflate the issue of helping people and risk management to serve their best interests.
That said, give them the option of insurance (e.g. quarantine) or to setup a bond that will cover all expenses related to transmitting the antigen and uncertainty.
that there is absolutely no chance whatsoever of someone catching it from someone in a relatively early stage of the disease, with mild symptoms and a fever
It’s worse than this. Some 10-15% of cases have no fever according to the Atlantic article. Ever, even in the late stages.
So all these people who don’t have fever have some small chance of getting sick anyway. Let’s hope somebody told them that and if they get other symptoms they self report immediately.
I am amazed that these people are not afraid of having ebola or giving it to other people. A small chance is still a chance.
Knowing that you are smarter and more virtuous than everybody else is a powerful drug that tells you the rules are for little people.
“Hickox and Boyko are giving those who volunteer for ebola duty in Africa a bad name. I sincerely hope they are not typical of the genre. ”
You hope but clearly don’t believe either.
It’s obvious that they’re either sublimating some psychological issue through these behaviors, or acting on an ulterior agenda, or both.
Both science and hard and dismally repeated experience, are leading us to a point where the moral (as opposed to biological) unity of the human species is revealed as an increasingly untenable idea. And not for the “cultural” reasons Mead and Boas imagined.
Typical self-involvement for this generation, everything is always about them. Evidently, no concern whatsoever as to the possibility of their having Ebola and transmitting it other Americans.
And stupid too, if they do have it and transmit it to others, they’ll get zero sympathy and if they survive, permanent opprobrium from the public.
In fact, if their self indulgence results in the deaths of others, negligent homicide charges should be leveled. Though in fairness, Obama should be the first charged with that crime.
Someone write them a letter…
If life is like a zombie movie, what part do you play?
The hero, who battles zombies, or the idiot a-whipes that cause the huge blowout of carnage?
If she thought that quarantine was bad, she is going to find out that risking the lives of 300 million odd people will make her so unpopular that she will wish she sat in quaratine just so she could later mop up the sympathies. but now, she is going to whine next that the people should not hate her, except that there will be no court to go to, to get an order for improved social relations of the public at large.
ie. sitting around for a month being compensated by the Obama administration would have been infinitely better in outcomes…(and thats excluding the book deal).
Australia by the way is not allowing visas
even emergency 911, the old tv show recently broadcast the episode where they were to be locked in the station because of exposure to a desease a lot less vile than obola…
note that the CDC now admits that you CAN catch ebola by the air…
the interesting thing is how the left plays on various definitions… to a medical person, surviving without water droplets means airborn, but with droplets not.
among scientists, a hypothesis is an idea, while a theory is a fact… not so with common people. and when the left politician says it will tax income, the common rube thinks any money earned is income, when the politco is really using the definitions accountants and tax code use, which leaves out dividends as income. which is why the super wealthy do not get taxed, as their predominant earnings are from dividends.
about 2 million in stock like KKR would net you 88,888 shares, which would pay out about .50 a share per quarter… or about 177,000 per year…
why did bloomberg accept a $1 salary?
easy… at $1 his tax burden on the above would be ZERO. but if he got a real salary, he would pay anywhere from 15% to 25% in taxes. (26,000 or 44,000)
so by being paid a dollar he ended up earning a heck of a lot more than if he actually had a salary which would give him a higher taxable income, and kick in higher tax rates on dividends.
same with buffet… which doesnt include the perks his company assigns to him, like a company apartment, a company car, etc…
knowing the rules is the other side of the finance game most people dont “get”
but those who are savvy get it, while the politicos play them for their own ignorance.
“among scientists, a hypothesis is an idea, while a theory is a fact…”
Not exactly correct.
hypothesis: “a proposition, or set of propositions, set forth as an explanation for the occurrence of some specified group of phenomena, either asserted merely as a provisional conjecture to guide investigation (working hypothesis) or accepted as highly probable in the light of established facts.”
theory: “a proposed explanation whose status is still conjectural and subject to experimentation, in contrast to well-established propositions that are regarded as reporting matters of actual fact.”
In addition, “Most “scientists” are bottle washers and button sorters.” R.A. Heinlein
I offer the scientific ‘consensus’ of ‘global warming’ theory as definitive proof of Heinlein’s assertion.

——————–
It might be a bit more than that. Over at Ace of Spades HQ, someone noted a few days ago that volunteering for groups like Doctors Without Borders carries a certain weight and prestige among the Elitist Lib-Prog set. “Guaranteed panty-dropper” was one of the phrases used, iirc. And there are a lot of Elitist Lib-Progs in the North-Eastern US. So what we might be seeing is the natural result of a large concentration of people from a particular geographical cluster volunteering (for reasons of prestige as opposed to reasons of compassion) for groups that are currently engaged in the fight against Ebola.
And GB let us not forget that lobbying for global warming as *settled science* (impossible because it
occurs in the future, uh DUH !)
yields generous Gov grants, awards, conferences to exotic locals, pay raises, book deals & more jobs for more beaker washers, & more administrative assistants.
And this arrogant little snot is supposed to be a paragon of virtue and compassion?
Well, if by chance she does come down with Ebola, and at that point she has possibly communicated it to a whole lot of people, does she just say OOPS?
DNW: “where the moral (as opposed to biological) unity of the human species is revealed as an increasingly untenable idea.”
It is noble that they volunteer to treat Ebola at the source and they should be supported, but it’s striking that they seem to have little basic sense of stability, trust, and cohesion – loyalty – for their own community. On balance, a precautionary 21-day quarantine – made comfortable – upon return from the hot zone does not seem especially onerous. It seems sensible and a low bar of discouragement. On balance. Yet a reasonable sense of essential social-ethical balance is missing with them.
It happens when they sell their soul to the demonic Leftist death cult. They gain absolution of sins in Africa, but come home and get even more things to be guilty of.
So, let’s suppose that as a result of Kaci’s theatrics (written, produced, directed by, and starring “America’s Truth-to-Power speaking Sweetheart”) someone innocent, say an American wife and mother of three, is infected by ebola transmitted to her by “America’s Sweetheart” (TM neoneocon), and dies; whereas Kaci survives her bout.
So you’re that woman’s husband, a typical modern American male
You respond by …
– Sitting disconsolately on your couch, crying in front of a news crew
– Talk of what a tragedy it is for all involved and how it shows that the world is in this together
– Express the hope that the authorities will not let this happen again while praising Kaci’s intentions and courage.
DNW,
It might not be by Hickox. It might be by the next person who follows Hickox’s precedent in the next state that is held back by Hickox’s precedent.
Yes. Something is missing.

One note: I am not necessarily endorsing everything Haidt says. But I do find that his roughing out of the topic seems to have some explanatory power.
Anyone who has been following his work however, quickly realizes that his “foundations” have themselves becomes bones of political contention. On what I would view as the positive side: libertarian’s have gotten him to consider that “liberty” may constitute a moral foundation; and conservatives to cause him to look at fairness in terms of reciprocity and proportionality, and not just as a synonym for equality of condition.
On the negative side, is the left/liberal’s attempt to co-opt as many of the connotations of “liberty” for themselves as they can. Apparently they still find “liberty” a useful rhetorical term, like “democracy”, and one which they are desperate not to relinquish title to. This, even though they demonstrably have little real interest in economic liberty or self-responsibility.
I hope that self-righteousness is not contagious. If it is contagious, this woman has probably infected many people.
Americans’ fears about Ebola are fading, Post-ABC News poll finds
This from the poll is depressing, even if it is due mostly to Dems falling in line:
I don’t buy that a 21-day quarantine would have a chilling effect on volunteerism among health care workers. These are people who are willing to put their lives on the line by working closely with ebola patients, so why in the world would a quarantine put them off? Seems a piece of cake compared with being in the field, doing the work they do.
It doesn’t seem onerous in the slightest to me. Plus, the quarantine of Duncan’s family didn’t seem onerous to anyone, as I recall. It’s a damn shame that Princess Kaci was put in a tent, which has now put a face on quarantines that screams horrible, inhumane, etc.
DNW,
You left out choice ‘d’, personal payback.
Eric,
That it is indeed “striking that they seem to have little basic sense of stability, trust, and cohesion — loyalty — for their own community” would appear to directly contradict the supposition that noble motives are responsible for their having volunteered to treat Ebola at the source. Instead, it would seem to support junior’s (@ 12:55) suspicion that their actual motivation is “that volunteering for groups like Doctors Without Borders carries a certain weight and prestige among the Elitist Lib-Prog set”.
A precautionary 21-day quarantine — made comfortable — upon return from the hot zone is NOT especially onerous. It is eminently sensible and reasonable.
“Yet a reasonable sense of essential social-ethical balance is missing with them.”
If junior is right and I believe he is, about the strong liberal predisposition of those who volunteer, then it very much reminds me of r/K Selection Theory’s quantification of r-type (liberal) organisms;
It also occurs to me that the very first widespread r-type environment was Western civilization well after the industrial revolution had begun. It would be interesting to see a graph comparing the rise of abundance in the West and the rise of leftist liberalism. But even without data, it’s obvious that such a correlation is probable.
The press articles let pass without comment the zany notion that quarantine is only appropriate when the person is symptomatic.
Obviously, the reverse is true.
Once the symptoms show, the afflicted HAVE to go into isolation and full on treatment.
The HORRIFIC percentage of MDs and nurses that have contracted ebola in west Africa makes Kaci’s stance truly bizarre.
Even a SINGLE ebola case is costing $2,000,000 to treat. It’s not just the medical tab… it’s the tracing… the cops… the courts… every location the fool visited… the pets… on and on it goes.
America is already it the breaking point with less than ten ebola victims. Those few have produced scads of souls monitoring themselves/ in quarantine.
Once it gets rolling, as west Africa shows, the progression is a cancer.
The very nature of this virus is pandemic. Once it’s out of the bottle, this genie simply does NOT stop… until it’s visited everybody.
&&&
Even now, the Press can’t admit that ebola — this ebola — really got its legs at ONE mosque. It’s at the center of the the Liberian ‘cluster.’
Then it spread like crazy to an ever expanding ring of victims.
&&&
Lest we forget: Williams, the pregnant gal, picked up ebola from someone who was ASYMPTOMATIC.
She didn’t travel outside the house.
THIS is why her mother and father (their house) couldn’t believe that she’d contracted ebola. They reasoned it simply HAD to be malaria — spread by mosquitoes.
Her parents never permitted anyone who was sick to contact her. This isolation is typical — a cultural tradition — designed to protect newborns.
It must be obvious by now that ebola can be contracted from asymptomatic carriers/ victims.
&&&
Waiting upon a fever is folly.
A fever condition occurs CONSEQUENT to ebola getting entirely out of hand within one’s body.
So, a victim was well able to spread ebola even before it was flamingly obvious something was awry.
Geoffrey Britain,
It needn’t be either/or. The volunteers can be noble, do the work, seek out street cred, and be reasonably responsible.
blert: “The press articles let pass without comment the zany notion that quarantine is only appropriate when the person is symptomatic.”
In fact, that’s not even the official definition of quarantine. While isolating someone is part of the quarantine procedure, isolation and quarantine are not the same thing.
Symptom is an element of isolation but not of quarantine. Quarantine implies a lack of symptom. The key element of quarantine is exposure, not symptom.
From http://www.cdc.gov/quarantine/ :
“While Obama Officials Bloviate About Settled ‘Science,’ DoD Scientists Fear Air Transmission of Ebola”
“Quarantine ordered for troops returning from W. Africa”
So troops that haven’t even had contact with the Ebola infected will be automatically quarantined but medical personnel that have been working with the Ebola infected don’t need to be…
just one more example of the Obama administration’s criminal negligence.
Is it possible that Kaci Hickox never actually treated any Ebola patients?
Hickox reminds me of Edward Snowden. The same arrogance. All puffed up and self-righteous. Or as my mother would say, just full of herself.
Like you, Eric, I have my doubts that SHE actually did patient care, I bet she was there as a CDC admin person or some type of *nurse* manager
with an office and a 9 to 5 job that did not include disposing of the 3 gallons of diarrhea these poor victims are apt to experience.
When Christie did the 180 on his decision to let her go, with the provision that she provide her own non-public transportation, it was fairly obvious that he was dumping her on some other state. This was especially wise move as who wants to deal with crazy. A couple of Maine officials have hinted “she may be a danger to herself”. Yes we noticed.
Eric said…”Is it possible that Kaci Hickox never actually treated any Ebola patients?”
Here’s what Doctors Without Borders says about her work for them:
Kaci Hickox has carried out important, lifesaving work for MSF in a number of countries in recent years, and we are proud to have her as a member of our organization.
Sort of vague isn’t it?
Artful, you know a lot about a lot of things, but you don’t know nuttin’ about taxes. Dividends are taxed at 20% (unless you are in a low tax bracket, which Bloomberg ain’t). Same with capital gains. Bloomberg’s ordinary income will undoubtedly be taxed at the highest marginal rate, 39.6% for federal, plus the 3.8% investment tax surcharge, plus New York state and city taxes, which ain’t cheap.
If someone like the sweetheart infects her own family members and friends it would be unfortunate for those she infects, but conversely it would be a beneficial occurrence for the public at large. Mandatory, closely watched quarantine would be put in place quicker than bho can say fore.
Even California isn’t buying what Obama is selling:
The Fed’s stance on the issue is odd more so since Ebola is explicitly named on the CDC’s quarantinable disease list.
Excerpt from
http://www.cdc.gov/quarantine/historyquarantine.html :
Excerpt from
http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2003-04-09/pdf/03-8832.pdf :
Now, the executive order does state in section 2 that “The Secretary [Secretary of Health and Human Services], in the Secretary’s discretion, shall determine whether a particular condition constitutes a communicable disease of the type specified in section 1 of this order.” However, given that Ebola is explicitly named as a communicable disease in section 1 of the order, I don’t see how a different determination can be reached.
A couple of days ago Neo scolded me for painting the heroic Dr Spencer with the same brush as America’s sweetheart, nurse Kaci do-gooder. Seems that Dr Spencer is not the responsible and person he claimed to be.
http://nypost.com/2014/10/29/ebola-doctor-lied-about-his-nyc-travels-police/
The difference between them is slight. He rejected the idea of a quarantine for himself from the start.
Lying to protect himself from criticism, instead letting people in his wake know they may have been exposed as well. Yeah, that’s the kind of selfless, responsible, caring person that heroes are made of. This is not the kind of person you would want for your doctor. He makes a mistake that might cost the life of others, but he rolls the dice, and lies to avoid blame. His reputation for a life.
I wonder how many other Ebola heroes have been exposed, and never gave a second thought or worried they might have brought something back.
Quarantines should be like gov’t: “Gov’t is just another name we give for the things we do together, and, if you don’t do them, you’ll be fined or imprisoned.”
I think her lack of graciousness and the cavalier attitude toward other Americans, above and beyond, playing the victim card,.. hurts, rather then helps, her cause.
Christie’s capitulation may have been pragmatic, but it was COWARDLY. His job is to protect the citizens, and a 21-day imposition isn’t too much to bear for that.
He should’ve locked up Hickox, as comfortably as possible, with an explicit warning that she WOULD BE SHOT if she tried to break quarantine.
Time to quit f*cking around with this PC crap. And an example needs to be made of these selfish, selfish people who are endangering everyone else.
Leftwing nutjobs hate America and Americans, and profess to just luuurve all foreign, nonwhite peoples; so this fits perfectly with their mindset.
Go help all the little brown babies, and come back and INFECT all those nasty American ones. Serves them right! Neener, neener!
I shouldn’t, but I won’t be a whit sorry if this cow gets the disease and is taken for a rough ride; as long as she doesn’t infect any innocents. (Looks like her boyfriend is as big of a swine as she is, tho.)
“Perry had additional words of praise for the Texas nurse’s decision to agree to the quarantine request. “This health care hero has made a great sacrifice in traveling abroad to minister to those who are suffering,” he said. “Even now home in Texas, she continues to demonstrate her selflessness by agreeing to quarantine herself and further protect her fellow Texans.”

Just a reminder: many Leftists think the world is over populated and could do with a die off. (They always think they and their families will be the survivors). There’s Bill Ayers comment about killing off 25 million or so. Many Peak Oil groups have the same mentality. Perhaps some one could read “The Hot Zone” to “nurse Kaci”, preferably over a PA system.

Christie essentially got Kaci DEPORTED from New Jersey — up to Maine.
He was assured that Maine would handle her until her quarantine was up, or some such.
She won’t follow common sense, he can’t enforce the law.

As I’ve said before, it’s denial. People think that if they believe hard enough, their act of belief will change reality. These people are so afraid of dying from ebola that they’re trying to pretend it out of existence.

The more I see and hear from Hickox, the more insufferable she becomes. She initially reminded me of Debbie Wasserman Schulz, but I am now beginning to think of her as the Sandra Fluke of the Ebola crisis.
