Instead of limiting visas from Liberia and the other ebola afflicted nations, our government has increased these visas in the last two months, according to the WashPo article I linked above!
Ok...Until they get to an US airport we are not in control. So the only way to make the virus doesn't spread would be to keep them in a controlled environment for at least 21 days. Someone with a Visa could come in contact with an Ebola patient, like Duncan did, within days of his flight.

Now care to guess how many died before anything was done the last time this happened?
