And tonight, investigators hot on the trail. Good evening and thank you for joining us this sunday evening. Im cecilia vega. As we come on the air, there is new front in the fight against ebola, and its centered right here at this new jersey hospital where a nurse just back from africa is confined. Kaci hickox is showing no symptoms but the governor says she cant leave for three weeks and she is speaking out tonight. And two more states alongside new york and new jersey imposing a mandatory quarantine. Are the new rules going too far are or they protecting the public from this deadly disease .

Inside the tent, kaci hickox says she was treated like a criminal from new Jersey Health officials when she returned from treating patients in sierra leone. She says she is treated inhumane. This is unacceptable. And i feel my basic human rights with violated. Reporter in an open letter to the dallas morning news, she said she was left in a cold tent with nothing but paper scrubs for clothing. I sat along in an isolation tent.

Linsey davis, thank you. And dr. Rich besser joins us now. You opposed the mandatory quarantine. Why . Well, the Health Care Workers dont pose a risk. There have been hundreds and hundreds of workers in the region and returned to the countries. Not one has infected anyone else. And the reason is, you cannot share the infection unless you are sick and sharing body fluids. Monitoring for fever works. We need to celebrate them as heroes so more people will go over. We heard from a lot of people out there, the viewers who support the quarantine on the nurse. Is there a middle ground . I understand the fear. Its a deadly infection. We need the leaders to lead, not follow the pack. We are getting mixed messages. Here in new york, we have the leaders say the doctor posed no risk but they went to every place he visited and cleaned it up. The middle ground is coming this week.
