MARTHA RADDATZ, HOST: Good morning, I'm Martha Raddatz. And as we come on the air, new details about Ebola in America, a fiery new debate. Is it fair to order mandatory quarantines or health care workers returning from the hot zone? Or is it an overreaction? The debate exploding this morning after one health care worker says she was treated like a criminal.

LINDSEY DAVIS, ABC NEWS CORRESPONDENT: Health care worker Kaci Hickox, the first high risk traveler quarantined in New Jersey has tested negative for Ebola, but remains under mandatory quarantine.

In an open letter to the Dallas Morning News, she says she was treated like a criminal when she returned home from treating Ebola patients in Sierra Leone. Of her arrival at Newark Airport, she writes, "I sat alone in the isolation tent and thought of many colleagues who will return home to America and face the same ordeal."

She says she was held for six hours, grilled by officials and given only a granola bar and water, detained even after her temperature was taken at a healthy 98 degrees.

On Saturday, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie responded

CHRIS CHRISTIE, GOVERNOR OF NEW JERSEY: I'm sorry if in any way she was inconvenienced, but the inconvenience that could occur from having folks who are symptomatic and ill out and amongst the public is a much, much greater concern of mine.

DAVIS: Late Saturday, Florida joined Illinois, New York and New Jersey, all now imposing their own mandatory 21 day quarantine, far stricter than the federal requirements for high-risk travelers entering the U.S.

Ashoka Mukpo, the freelance journalist who recovered from the virus, says the quarantine policy threatens those on the front lines of the fight against Ebola.

ASHOKA MUKPO, FREELANCE JOURNALIST: If it's going to do anything, it makes it more difficult for those people to go is not the right thing to do right now.

DAVIS: Hickox is one of four people in the New York area now quarantined by state order. Another, Morgan Dixon, seen here returning late last night to the Harlem apartment she shares with fiance and Ebola patient Dr. Craig Spencer who is still hospitalized.

Hickox's attorney tells ABC News they believe the state's quarantine policy infringes on her liberty interest and they are preparing to challenge it -- Martha.
