An unidentified Sheriff’s Deputy employee for the Maricopa (AZ) Sheriff’s Department returned home on October 20th, from Sierra Leone to Belgium and he traveled to Washington Dulles International Airport where again his temperature was taken before being questioned and cleared by CDC authorities to return to Phoenix. In a moment of sheer medical brilliance, the CDC officials gave him a thermometer and told him to self-monitor for the next three weeks.
The Sheriff’s Deputy works at Arpaio’s infamous jail as a detention officer where 700 inmates and 100 county employees coexist in tightly confined quarters. Several of the employees at the detention center said they would not come to work if the unidentified Deputy was allowed to come to work after arriving home from Sierra Leone.
The deputy officer, in question, travels to Sierra Leone annually and has worked for the sheriff’s office since 2006. America’s most famous Sheriff, Joe Arpaio has countermanded the CDC’s reckless inaction and dereliction of duty towards the health and welfare of the American public, and has subsequently taken decisive action. Arpaio as he has told the employee in no certain terms to stay home and ordered the employee to stay away from work for 21 days. Sheriff Joe stated that the employee has cooperated and willingly agreed to remain home for the 21-day incubation period as he will be on administrative leave. The deputy will be allowed to return to work after November 12th, if he shows no signs of the virus.
An Ominous Warning: When Will It Be time to Stop Going Out In Public?
Arpaio has, in effect, issued a strong warning for the American public as he stated, “Corrections officials throughout the United have a growing concern about how to deal with Ebola should the virus gain more traction here. Jails are a unique environment. They are a closed system. Inmates cannot simply leave because they fear a disease outbreak. Jails have to react quickly and definitely to prevent the possibility of transmission.”
