Relying on screening at airports is difficult, said Laurie Garrett, senior fellow for global health at the Council on Foreign Relations, who said during the previous SARS and swine flu outbreaks that uninfected travelers were quarantined while infected travelers got through.

“I think the idea that you can stop a virus at the airport or before it gets on an airplane is as much an antique as the notion that Ellis Island will screen out all disease among the immigrants,” she told reporters.

Someone apparently does not get it. They won't be screened at the airport if no travel is permitted.
