LARA Logan of CBS News is being quarantined in a South Africa hotel for three weeks as a precaution after visiting an American-run hospital treating Ebola patients in Liberia for a "60 Minutes" report that aired Sunday. CBS said Monday that Logan's 21-day self-quarantine will end this Friday. Neither Logan nor the four other CBS employees in South Africa have shown any sign that they are infected with the virus. Logan, speaking in a "60 Minutes Overtime" web interview from the room where the CBS crew put its report together, admitted to some cabin fever as she waits out her stay. She said the South African government had given the crew permission to work at the hotel. Logan and her team conducted an interview with CBS via FaceTime for 60 Minutes Overtime. Pic: Screengrab CBS. "We wanted to try, as much as possible, to minimise our exposure to anybody while we still had to get our piece done," she said. We were very mindful of the fact that this 21-day period after you've been in an Ebola-affected country is very important to everyone. Logan is one of CBS" most famous correspondents. She made global headlines in 2011 when she was assaulted while covering protests in Egypt's Tahrir Square. The Ebola story was the second she had worked on after a forced leave of absence after questions were raised about her role in a disputed story on the deadly 2012 raid at the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya. The interview showed Logan and one of her colleagues in a room stuffed with equipment. "We haven't travelled far from the room that you can see," she said. Logan suffered a sexual assault in a crowd as she covered the fall of Egyptian President Mubarak at Tahrir Square in 2011. The former model turned television presenter was also forced on a leave of absence after a Benghazi report. She won the Woman of the Year award for Glamour magazine in 2007. The "60 Minutes" report detailed her precautions while in Liberia, including being hosed down with a chlorine solution, having her temperature taken frequently and making sure not to touch people. A CBS security worker travelled with the crew with the responsibility of watching everyone's interactions to minimise any chance they could be infected. A cameraman who was working for NBC News in Liberia contracted the virus but recovered last month. Nancy Snyderman, the NBC News medical correspondent who worked there, was asked to go into voluntary quarantine when she arrived home but that was made mandatory after she was spotted leaving her home. ABC's Richard Besser was not quarantined upon his return from Liberia because the ABC team was judged not to have had exposure to the virus. Logan briefly teamed up when talking about William, a 5-year-old boy featured in her report who was cared for in the hospital by his father but who later died. She said she has a son the same age. "It's so heartbreaking," she said. It's really been hard on all of us. Originally published as Lara Logan quarantined after Ebola report
