Why not just transport them to hospital ship? There you have folks who should know how to follow quarantine orders and Doc’s can treat via Video link with techs on board. The cruise ship out of Galveston should just be resupplied and told to stay at sea for a couple of weeks. There ya go.

I guess the plan would be to fly them all here in large planes. There are only a few of the type Pham flew in and they only hold one patient.

Your comments on hospital ships and cruise ships gave me an idea. I'm wondering whether WHO/MSF/Whatever should buy a few cruise ships - big but old ones, that they can afford to use as quarantine ships and then mothball until needed again. With a capacity of 3,000 to 6,000 passengers per ship, they could remove huge large numbers of Ebola patients from West Africa and genuinely isolate them from all but the caregivers. Staff them with MSF volunteers and Ebola survivors. That could make a difference if they did it in the next 30 days.
