Ebola is the deadliest virus in the world.
Our government is playing Russian roulette by allowing people from Western Africa to enter this country and then checking them AND THE QUESTION IS NOT IF SOMEONE ENTERS WITH THE DISEASE BUT WHEN SOMEONE WITH THE DISEASE EVADES GOVERNMENTS CHECK WHAT WILL BE THE DEPTH OF THE CONSEQUENCES.
In fact you may find that someone Ebola will intentionally make an attempt to come to America to get what they deem is better care. The government has proven time and time again that they are highly subjected to human error ( I am being kind here).
I would believe that prudence would dictate that travel from West Africa to anywhere be placed on hold until health officials contain this disease. The human and economic cost associated with allowing travelers here is a real problem. why should medical people in this country have to deal with the potential with someone coming here with Ebola whether they are discovered or not and in the latter instance only creates more concern and heavier costs
the Spanish flu of 1918 affected 500 million people worldwide killing millions and this Ebola outbreak has that potential if not contained.
