Saudi has already said no Hajj visas will be issued to countries that have ongoing ebola outbreaks.

Now that a Saudi has died of it in Saudi Arabia itself, I wonder if they'll prohibit other Saudis from going there. Perhaps they should just call the whole thing off.

That’s an interesting prospect. If this curve is indeed going exponential (number of cases) right now, I just don’t see how it’s contained by the time Hajj rolls around.

There are probably interesting arguments going on about that right now in the Saudi MOH.
