EBOLA NURSE KACI HICKOX defies common sense and quarantine guidelines. This, six days after another case of 'self-isolation' gone stupid.

My thoughts, more or less:
From where I sit ... it’s the belief that you and your needs are acutely exceptional and important, and take precedence over those of the people around you. It’s the unspoken belief that your day radiating sickness at the office is worth a couple of your colleagues being bedridden with your flu for a week. You may not be actively thinking that, but that’s the math your actions ... imply. It’s selfishness and solipsism, pure and simple.
As much as I dislike the thought, it may be necessary for Kaci Hickox to become ill with the Ebola virus to overcome this sanctimonious moral preening.
