I thought the government had a single plane to transport patients, but that it wasn’t equal to the one (or two) privately owned planes that we have been seeing so far that have brought in the missionaries and the others, those are supposed to be cutting edge.

The good news is that more are being put together as this problem has finally seemed to reach attention level, Germany will have some ready soon.

Germany http://www.dw.de/media-germany-working-to-build-ebola-transport-plane/a-18006454

The American company that we have all seen transporting patients individually. http://www.northwestgeorgianews.com/rome/news/local/cartersville-air-crews-trained-for-ebola-transport/article_d43524d6-1ebf-11e4-9a79-001a4bcf6878.html

This article says that the private company only has one plane, although I have seen them described as having two. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/oct/1/cdc-spends-5-million-to-use-ebola-jet-it-helped-de/?page=all

Here is an article describing them having two, and the French also having a plane so equipped. oops, not quite——”The French company, however, has only one plane equipped for Ebola victims and will carry only so-called dry patients — people who have contracted Ebola and have a fever but have not yet developed more serious symptoms like bleeding, vomiting and diarrhea.” http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/15/world/europe/ebola-fight-in-africa-is-hurt-by-limits-on-ways-to-get-out.html
