Should Ebola caregivers be quarantined for 21 days after returning to this country?

"Yes. Something as contagious as Ebola definitely warrants caution, care and considera-tion. Quar-antining is the least we can do, to help cut off the head of the beast. Any disease like this is a real concern to me."

"Yes. Ebola is a definite threat that merits necessary precautions. Quarantining doesn’t increase panic. It will lessen panic in the country. People will feel better, because something effective is being done."

"Yes, because you can be infectious without showing symptoms. I’m not a medical expert by any means but we should be taking all necessary precautions, within reason. Quarantining is appropriate. I would hope the caregiver would readily cooperate, because they don’t want to infect anyone."


Timothy DeSario

"Yes. Ebola is a very serious thing. It’s not something to be taken lightly. From this point forward, the caregivers should be given fair warning that they’ll be placed in quarantine when they return. That just goes with the turf. It’s unfortunate if they’re uncomfortable. But it’s for the greater good."
