The nation's top infectious control doctor says mandatory quarantines of Ebola patients can have what he calls the unintended consequence of discouraging health care workers from volunteering in the Ebola-ravaged countries of West Africa.
Dr. Anthony Fauci (FOW'-chee) is the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
He says that as a physician and scientist, he would not have recommended a quarantine.
Because it would be bad for Africa.
Sounds like somebody needs to have a chat with those docs.
They're willing to risk their lives for stricken Africans but not to spend three weeks in quarantine to protect Americans from the same awful fate?
