Quarantined Nurse Reveals Photos of Her Prison-Like Living Quarters
Quarantined Nurse Reveals Photos of Her Prison-Like Living Quarters – A nurse quarantined in New Jersey after arriving home from treating Ebola patients in Sierra Leone is speaking out against the “prison”-like living conditions she’s endured throughout her time in isolation.
Hickox said she doesn’t have access to a shower or flushable toilet, and isn’t allowed to talk to her lawyer.
“The tent has a window, and doctors talk to me in normal clothes from outside the window,” she said. “So if there’s no risk to them talking to me from outside the window, it doesn’t make any sense that my lawyer wouldn’t be able to do the same.”
“Everyone keeps asking how I’m feeling physically, and of course I’m fine physically, but I don’t think most people understand what it’s like to be alone in a tent, and decisions are being made that don’t make sense and show no compassion,” the nurse told CNN.
Kaci Hickox told CNN on Sunday, “This is an extreme that is really unacceptable, and I feel like my basic human rights have been violated”. “To put me through this emotional and physical stress is completely unacceptable.”
In an appearance on Fox News Sunday, Christie said he stood by the 21-day quarantine for those considered “high risk,” who are returning home through airports in New York and New Jersey. He added that the voluntary system of quarantine is unreliable.
