IF she were to come down with the symptoms and full blown sickness between now and Nov 10, would you still stand by your opinion of not quarantining returnees since they show no immediate symptoms upon returning?
Yes. If she is infected then she would get sick in or out of quarantine. Her chances are probably much better if she is picked up from home as she would likely be flown to Emory or NIH instead of getting treated in a tent in Jersey City.

Exactly but if she's in quarantine at the time she becomes sick then the odds of her having affected other people is a helluva lot less. You realize how many people would be in harm's way with 24 hours of her becoming ill? I mean, if it's not a certainty as to when she becomes infectous prior to her having full blown symptoms,, then how can you be comfortable with that?

Last question, honest answer. If you just came back under the same scenario as this person did, you wouldn't hesitate at all to move right on back in with the wife and kids? Be honest.
