Ebola has a 21 day incubation period...so how can they confine the massive number of people who were even in the airport, let alone the plain?

Liberia is not like the surrounding rural areas of other neighbor nations who have been containing this virus since the 70’s. It’s a major city with millions of people going thru their airports daily.

This is why ‘extreme measures’ are now being taken in Liberia....the cat got out of the bag into a major hub of International and national travel.....

Liberia is a country of @ 4million people. Monrovia is its major/capital city with about 1/10 of the country’s population. I don’t know that it’s ever been an international hub of travel. It has very few flights in and out to the West. And as far as I know, you can’t get a non-stop (or even one-stop) between Monrovia and New York.

Liberia was just starting to recover from its civil war. God only knows how it will overcome this Ebola situation.
