Those special suits had better be foolproof. If not, why not?

Nope.
You can become contaminated while removing the suit.
Ebola Zaire is weakly airborne, it can be spread short range through aerosolized droplets.
Like sneezing or especially juicy coughing.
Brush the suit, touch your face after, you’ve just joined the ranks of the infected.
That’s how the docs are getting it over there, the decon process isn’t perfect.

• It's very expensive in terms of facilities needed, disposable suits and other materials.
• It requires trained personnel, using a buddy system, following instructions to the letter
• It requires a way to dispose of everything that is contaminated. Not everything can be incinerated, such as the floor that you walk on - so there must be a way to wash it reliably, and there must be a way to safely dispose of used liquids.
• It requires a way to deal with accidents, treating survivors or disposing the bodies safely.
• As such work is very dangerous, not everyone will volunteer. You may have shortage of trained workers. You may have willing but untrained workers.
• Nothing is foolproof.
