I think having a fear over this is expected and normal.. I'm sure I would want to hole up and stay away from people to be honest. But we cant just allow fear to over come us to the point we never venture out.. I would be hyper aware of taking safety precautions for myself.
Are you able to research the virus to the point your mind is eased enough for you to go back out even if not to the extent you want or need to? Or does researching the virus cause things to escalate the fear for you?
I agree that he should really have stayed put for 21 days to make sure he was in the clear.. I do think now that this has happened there is going to be regulations placed on anyone, Doctors, nurses, relief workers etc coming here from the areas that are devastated by this virus.
The nurse Nina Pham has been declared healthy today

I'm just relieved a bit that people are surviving this terrible illness.
Take care of you
