That will they do ? Ask the passengers if they have any cold, cough, or feel feverish. Rite...and the passengers will tell the truth....Indians who come from there will be eager to go home they will lie through their nose and go home, and realize only after 2 weeks.

The region has to be simply isolated from the rest of the world, and all financial and econolic help provided till this is brought to an end.

45,000 Indians there ? mostly buinsess men and engineers I guess.

Look at the bright side. It seems the cure for Ebola may not be far away. There is already news about some kind of serum, supposedly derived in the research labs. in Winnipeg (Canada) according to the CTV news, showing positive results in an Ebola-infected patient (the sick doctor returning to Atlanta from Africa).
