Conti-Bdn                Yesterday friday,a Judge in Maine,ruled that a U.S female nurse Kaci Hickox who treated victims of Ebola in West Africa does not need to be confined to her home,declaring Ebola fears in the United States ''Not entirely rational''.The nurse Kaci Hickox challenged the quarantine law set by the government in Maine.Maine's 21 day isolation regime, is a key battle to some U.S states and the Federal Government to curb the further spread of Ebola virus.A handful of states have imposed mandatory quarantines on health workers returning from Ebola outbreak countries in West Africa in which the government is even considering discouraging potential medical volunteers.The Judge decided that Nurse Kaci Hickox must continue direct monitoring of her health,coordinate travel plans with officials and report any symptoms.Nurse Kaci Hickox said through a video shown in her lawyers office in New York that ''I'm happy with the decision the judge made today.i think we are on the right track.I think now we're discussing as a nation and individual communities about this disease''.Untill the Judge catches Ebola that's when he will  understand that Ebola is not a joke.More photos below.                                                                                     Kaci Hickox, a nurse who arrived in New Jersey on October 24 after treating Ebola patients in West Africa, speaks to her lawyer Norman Siegel from a hospital quarantine tent in Newark, New Jersey, October 26, 2014, in a photo provided by attorney Steve Hyman.
