Once she was in the UK the priority was getting her the best available treatment. If Ebola erupted in Scotland it would not stop at Hadrian's Wall. They made the right call and it worked. However I agree that they should do more tests before letting someone come back to the UK.

Mocking Scots was the least of the issues. She mocked a dying person on twitter. Private eye have never stooped to that level. There's nothing normal or sane about that comment.
