I heard a report that the 3 EMTs who transported him to the hospital are now required to stay at home for 21 days and "self Monitor" for any symptoms. Apparently this is the protocol if you "may" have been exposed.
I trust the EMTs to be responsible enough to actually comply and stay at home.
The thing that scares me is that if this protocol has to be implemented on a "large" number of people, I doubt that we can rely on individual compliance. It seems reasonable that some form of confinement may be necessary. That prospect opens up a whole set of other questions and problems that I don't think we are ready for.
