1. NOW she is complaining about the quantine--says it violates her civil rights!.........SELFISH SOB!

.......“As an asymptomatic COVID19 positive patient (quarantine ends 4/26),” Whitlock posted on Sunday, “another concern I have is the treatment of COVID patients as it relates to other communicable diseases. I have been forced to quarantine in my home for 2 weeks.”

Attempts to reach Whitlock for comment Sunday and Monday were unsuccessful. The News & Observer’s news partner, ABC-11, reported that Whitlock confirmed she tested positive but refused comment when asked whether she attended ReOpen NC’s protests in downtown Raleigh the last two Tuesdays.

In the information Whitlock posted on ReOpen NC’s private Facebook page, she complained that the quarantine violated her civil rights.

“I have been told not to participate in public or private accommodations as requested by the government, and therefore denied my 1st amendment right of freedom of religion,” Whitlock wrote. “If I were an essential employee, I would be denied access to my job by my employer and the government, though compensated, those with other communicable diseases are afforded the right to work. It has been insinuated by others that if I go out, I could be arrested for denying a quarantine order. However, the Americans with Disabilities Act prohibits discrimination by employers, places of public accommodation, and state and local government entities. . Where do we draw the line?”

6. It's a good thing we are not using 1930's quarantine rules.

The local health department would be putting a large red sign on her door that says "this house is under quarantine"
My Mother told me about those signs from her childhood. People would know from a distance something bad was happening in n the family that could affect you and your family.

was ranting and raving about their rights being taken away.
I'm so sick of these idiots.

5. typhoid Audrey

although she is right about one thing...testing doesn't work, when you don't do testing. But, she got tested for anti-bodies? Is that readily available, unlike the covid-19 testing?

7. Another "founder" is heavily anti-vax

One of the other three "founders" is a militant anti-vaxer homeschooler.
