You have a much better chance of contracting influenza than ebola and influenza can be deadly.

I'm not too worried about myself or my family getting ebola. I worry more for the nation's infrastructure if ebola starts decimating all our nation's best medical and public safety forces. The people needed most to stop the disease and to treat the suffering patients are the first to get exposed, and they are in hospitals with air systems that affect thousands of patients already in the hospitals and are there because they are sick and weak and many have lowered immune systems.
There was no reason why Duncan HAD to be allowed to come here. He's not a citizen and I find it highly suspect that he was working reliably in a decent job, and
he suddenly quit without notice on September 4. He then came to the U.S. to meet up with his "estranged" girlfriend. I think he was coming here to seek medical treatment for ebola, or to marry the woman to get legal immigration status, or both.
And as for his relatives in TX not having ebola, maybe he knew he had the disease and made sure nobody got close to him, staying in other livlng quarters, etc.
