Public health activists and human rights activists have come to a head-to-head argument over a nurse in maine named kaci hicox who spent time in west africa treating patients afflicted with the ebola virus. hicox claims that the government's attempt to confine her to her home for 21 days (the incubation period for an ebola infected patient to show symptoms) are unconstitutional. human rights activists are supporting hicox in her defiance of the court-ordered quarantine and applaud her leaving her home to ride her bike in public areas.

public health officials are horrified by hicox's flagrant disregard for the health of other people in maine. "her unconcern for people's health seems completely antithetical to her oath and responsibilities as a nurse," said thomas hillfiger, a protester outside of hicox's home who also happened to be wearing biohazard garb in an effort to protect himself from possible infection.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
