Jesus, some people are so paranoid about immigration. I am sure that they will want to go back to their family after spending a few weeks in a bio-containment unit vomiting and defecating. These aren't people expressing the least bit of interest in coming to America, they just want to get better.

OK, just making sure you favor repatriating them back into the hot zone after curing them.

I just don't see the point in wasting all that taxpayer money shuttling people back and forth to the US, and taking all the risks that entails. If we want to make a difference, we should invest that money in facilities & training, in Africa. Then they get what they need, we don't get what we don't want, and everybody is better off. Why is everyone in such a hurry to bring this plague here?

What I don't get is why this woman would not want to quarantine herself? It's 21 fricking days. As a volunteer at a hospital for Katrina evacuees I got TB. I was under a medical quarantine for two weeks once. I was assured I wouldn't be able to pass my illness to anyone because I had no cough, fever, etc, but they wanted to be safe. It was no problem for me. Why the hell would I want to walk around even if there was a remote chance I could infect someone? I had to go to a state clinic every day for 1 1/2 years to have antibiotics administered under supervision. I never once thought my civil rights were violated.
