WoW ! US may start screening air passengers for Ebola

News trailing around now is that The US government is considering screening passengers from Ebola hit countries before they enter the country. This is as a result of a Liberian man who entered the country with Ebola about a week ago.

President Obama said yesterday that though the likelihood of an Ebola outbreak in the US is “extremely low’ but they have to react.

“We’re also going to be working on protocols to do additional passenger screening both at the source and here in the United States. Countries that think that they can sit on the sidelines and
just let the United States do it, that will result in a less effective response, a less speedy response, and that means that people die.”

“And it also means that the potential spread of the disease beyond these areas in West Africa becomes more imminent,” President Obama said at the White House briefing with US health officials The Liberian man who became the first case of Ebola diagnosed on American soil, Thomas Eric Duncan, is
in a critical condition in a hospital isolation unit in Dallas.
