How would that be known? US customs doesn’t check the entire history of a persons passport when entering the US. They just look at where you embarked from. What about US citizens that travel for work?

If US citizens want to work in Saudi Arabia that's fine... They just can't come back for a few months from Saudi Arabia.

Update the passport system... keep out people who have visited countries with MERS. We need to do this in preparation for the EBOLA crisis that's bound to hit within the next few years anyhow..

What do employees do for the few months after they’re done? Won’t people get upset when that cost gets added to their contracts? Who wants to pay people for hanging out in a foreign country for a few months?

The Sauds can do their own damn work - or they can pay extra for risking other people’s lives. It might not have to be a few months - whatever the incubation period is plus a week.

You do realize we have quite a few defense contracts over there, which employ US govt contractors and govt employees. There are also a lot of US oil workers there. What about them?

How would that be handled? Govt contracts, especially DoD contracts, are very tightly controlled when it comes to travel expenses.

OK, maybe millions of Americans should die so the Sauds can hire people to do their work for them... Is that your position?

What's the alternative? That millions of Americans should die so foreign workers aren't inconvenienced?

History no longer teaches it, but those of us old enough remember reading about Typhoid Mary, while she did not have it, she was the carrier that spread it across the country.

This is just exactly it. With so many Service men and Women coming back from the M. E. that makes it easier for such a virus to enter this country, and let us not forget their doctors who are replacing our Doctors because of 0’care.
