The nurse who threatened to sue New Jersey and Gov. Chris Christie after she was placed in a state-mandated quarantine was working with the CDC — but apparently doesn’t want anyone to know it.
Kaci Hickox, who was placed in quarantine after testing positive for a fever upon her return from a trip to Sierra Leone to help treat Ebola patients, has a history of liberal activism and recently deleted her LinkedIn account, which had detailed her connection to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Her job title, according to a screenshot from Right Wing News, is Epidemic Intelligence Service Fellow at the CDC:
Hickox, who compared her living conditions while under quarantine to “prison,” told CNN Sunday that she felt her “basic human rights have been violated,” according to the report.
New Jersey, New York, and Illinois have placed quarantine restrictions on travelers returning to the United States from Ebola-stricken nations in West Africa, a move at odds with an Obama administration that seems determined to keep America’s borders open regardless of any danger that policy might pose to the American people.
Right Wing News cited a second report that describes Hickox as “an employee for the Centers for Disease Control and a registered Democrat with a history of left-wing advocacy.”
Why Hickox chose to delete her employment information from the internet — and why the fact that she is employed by the CDC has not come up in previous media reports — remain unanswered questions.
Just add them to the list of many things that the Obama administration has not told the American people about the Ebola outbreak.
