The Guardian, Thursday 30 October 2014 14.22 GMT

North Korean officials have announced they will quarantine foreigners for 21 days over fears of the spread of the Ebola virus, even though no cases of the disease have been reported in the reclusive country, or anywhere in Asia, and few foreigners are allowed to enter.

I don’t know about “more sense”.

They will quarantine you even though you’ve never been to a country that’s had Ebola.

If the USA quarantined EVERY person arriving in the country from anywhere, would have to find someplace to house them and feed them.

Good sense?

Lol yeah, okay, quarantine for “only” 21 days because of the Ebola scare, as if they’d release anybody crossing over into their borders.

I prefer America. Where private citizens can still tell the government to kiss their asses ... all practical considerations aside.

Quarantine inside quarantined country.  Do they mean prison?

Ellis Island in NY was there exactly for that purpose.

I think 'yodeling' is such an infidel word. More correct to call it like it is - ululating.... :o)

The kids were so looking forward to Great Leader’s Super Fun Work Camp for vacation.
