Descrição: When she tested positive for typhoid bacteria, the Department of Health forcibly moved her to North Brother Island, a dot of land in the East River just off the Bronx that housed a quarantine facility. Today Mallon's case is archetypal in bioethics literature, as scholars debate when the government is justified in depriving someone of her freedom for a perceived greater good-an issue with renewed public resonance when health workers returning from Ebola-ravaged West Africa are quarantined against their will.
