Another doctor returning from treating ebola cases in Africa has been take to hospital after coming down with a fever in new York, this makes my blood boil, if you want to go and do your bit as they say for ebola patients then why the hell are you not placed in quarantine BEFORE you get on a flight back to the usa, how dumb to leave it to the individual to monitor temp and keep away from others during incubation period, when you think of how many people this could kill it seems they are just not taking it seriously...
