New York and New Jersey will quarantine any arriving passengers who had direct contact with Ebola patients. This announcement was made today by the governors of these states. The quarantine will last 21 days. Not too many other details in this Bloomberg View article.

It says this:

"Others who travel from the region and haven’t had direct contact with virus patients will be actively monitored and quarantined only if necessary, they said."

So, just like Duncan (RIP), they can lie and say they didn't have any direct contact with virus patients.

The only way to know where these travelers have been before leaving the African country is to make them wear a GPS ankle bracelet for 3 weeks before getting onto the plane.

In fact, everybody coming into this country from the afflicted countries should wear a monitored ankle bracelet, since both a licensed RN and the dr. in NY--highly educated and intelligent people--didn't think it posed a problem to get onto the plane flights and 4 subway lines in NYC, and more.

People are going to lie rather than be confined for 3 weeks.
