According to the Judge re the need to quarantine Hickox:

Chief District Court Judge Charles C. LaVerdiere rejected the state’s argument that Hickox posed a public health threat and should be prevented from leaving her house in Fort Kent or interacting with the public.

“The court is fully aware of the misconceptions, misinformation, bad science and bad information being spread from shore to shore in our country with respect to Ebola,” he said in his decision. He ruled that some restrictions are “necessary to protect other individuals from the dangers of infection” and instructed Hickox that even though her movements are largely unrestricted, she should be mindful of the public’s concern."

He "imposed" monitoring, which she'd already agreed in accord with the scientists, and she has reassured the community that she's not on some sort of crusade and will keep to herself.

Meantime 96 people per day have died on US roads = well over a thousand dead people since this drama began. Maybe the roads should be quarantined rather than the nurse?

P.S. did you notice that the lawyers took on her case for no fee? There's no such thing as "free" when it comes to lawyers, so IMHO there's too much perverse incentive to perpetuate the drama. It's not news any more IMHO, so I'm happy to let it lie (unless we learn that she didn't actually treat sick patients...)
