New Jersey officials have issued a mandatory quarantine order for members of an NBC crew that was exposed to a cameraman with Ebola.

The order went into effect Friday night after they say a voluntary 21-day isolation agreement was violated.

Officials with the state Health Department told The Associated Press the crew remains symptom-free and there is no reason for concern of exposure to the deadly virus to the community.

Citing privacy concerns, department officials wouldn't give further details, including who violated the voluntary agreement and how the state learned of the violation.

uncaring, stupid morons, like there were for MrDuncan's family. To be fair, only a very small # of duers said things like that, but still, it was too many.
