She is CERTAINLY not looking for her 15 minutes of fame, because the only fame she's been getting is death threats - trust me, all the toothless heroin-addicted hillfolk that live in this state are baying for her blood and I hear their uneducated vitriole on the daily. Kaci deserves respect and admiration for the selfess work she did, not senseless imprisonment and hatred. I'm not afraid of anyone dying of ebola because of her, but I am afraid of her being murdered by some hick. If she has any reason to stay at home under quarantine it's to protect her from the people of Maine.

really well said, it's horrible she is being vilified by ignorant people and their knee jerk abuse.
