Is it THAT they quarantined her or is it how they went about it? Didn't they basically stop her at the airport and lock her in a room until they could transfer her to a tent outside of a hospital?
I believe this was the case. According to her, she was stopped at the airport and held in a room. Her temperature was normal. They continued to hold her despite no temp or any symptoms. After a few hours they took her temperature again. This time it came back as 101 which is a cause for concern. She said it was b/c she was 'upset and flushed' and told them to take her temp orally. They didn't. Instead they took her to a hospital where her temp was taken orally and came back normal. She showed no signs of anything and they continued to hold her in a tent outside the hospital for three days with no shower.
her version of the events
All medical personnel in her situation are supposed to monitor themselves. Once they detect a fever, they have time to alert public officials before they become contagious.

She should sue the hell out of everyone involved. I would find in her favor.
