Well she is not a doctor. What else can we call her. Perhaps she would prefer “The Ebola health care professional.” LOL!

It’s funny how when politicians (especially conservatives) realize they can gain politically from fear, suddenly the constitutional rights they pretend to be so strongly in favor of become negotiable.

she never had Ebola…what part of that statement is unclear?

all manner of of health care professionals are returning having looked after Ebola patients…they aren’t being termed the “ebola doctor”, are they?

It’s not a “national obsession” but a bunch of lazy,stupid news readers ignoring their jobs so they can
sow fear among their ignorant tea bagger readers.

But, but, but…what about the media narrative? Won’t someone please think about the media! They’re the real “victims” here!

Ebola Diva?

How about Right-Wing Paranoia Nurse?

11

I’ve a feeling she’d rather hear “Ebola nurse” than “Who’s Kaci Hickox?”

No, that makes it sound like she is a nurse spreading Right Wing Paranoia, instead of being a nurse that is the victim of Right Wing Paranoia.

Frankly, I think calling her hero would be most appropriate.

I know I know Kaci, and yes, it’s all so sad and yes you’re a brave and caring nurse but Kaci, your 15 minutes are up. Now please go away as you are becoming an annoying person.

Kaci is, apparently, awesome.

Neither Maine nor New Jersey is fit to even kiss her soiled protective shoe covers.

16

You’re the only one laughing pick wick. She’s right.

17

Death by irrational cliché, it’s the corrupt media/pol modern American way…

18

An ennobling act to better the human condition, gets amoral gibes and jeers from internet’s dungeon dwellers

…I am mystified at the level of vitriol directed at this selfless woman on this thread!!

Ahhhhh. 8 people out of 10 in the U.S. HAVE DIED from Ebola…Obviously she doesn’t have all of the facts. No one can take her word for it. Not cooperating is selfish and reckless. Why is she a nurse anyway?

8 people?..the 2nd death was reported this morning!..where RU getting these information about Kaci Hickox?
