Even if Ebola is not contagious prior to the infected party becoming symptomatic, I am in favor of the most conservative practice of a quarantine for those returning from Ebola areas because:

I do not TRUST anyone to place the common good over selfish desires. Not any more!

Ignored in all of these discussions are the possibilities of deliberate transmission of Ebola by fanatics and religious radicals. A 21-day quarantine would catch ALL of these. Trusting will catch zero.
