A Florida woman who was exposed to Hantavirus remains at a quarantine facility in Nebraska, despite a CDC recommendation. Angela Perryman, 47, received an order on Monday, signed by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. There's a purpose-built federal detention center at the University of Nebraska Medical Center to hold American citizens under these administrative orders, and what's happened to me demonstrates clearly that the checks and balances that were built into the law don't work.

Kennedy Jr., extending her federal quarantine at a facility in Omaha, "unless modified or rescinded" by a subsequent federal directive. Even the CDC's own reviewer says that Florida's plan is adequate and meets that standard. At this point, the federal government is just ignoring the law.

If they can do this to me, they can literally do it to anyone. If you sit on a pew beside someone coughing, you could be next. Perryman, meanwhile, says she's struggling to maintain her composure while stuck in isolation.
