White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest faced criticism for comparing the 21-day Ebola quarantine for returning troops to the "sacrifice" of getting a military haircut. Earnest argued that restricted movement is a standard part of military policy used to maintain unit cohesion and monitor health. The analogy was widely mocked for equating a life-altering medical isolation with routine grooming standards, leading to further questions about the administration's coordination of the Ebola response.
