I was saying the same thing about bringing the infected back and some FReepers were adament that it was no big deal because ebola coming to the Uas was pretty much inevitable.
I was kind of shocked at that.
The risks associated with flying those patients all the way back to the USA were never publicly mentioned. Little items like, engine failure in flight...it does happen. Weather making it impossible to land because of winds, low visibility etc. Anything which would have made a prudent captain divert to an alternate destination thus delivering his passengers to a situation for which they had not prepared...etc...etc. Thank God all went well.
