No one wearing a space suit has ever gotten Ebola, with the exception of one Russian scientist who accidentally stuck a contaminated needle into herself and contracted the disease that way.

The doctors and nurses who became ill had failures of PPE (personal protective equipment)--lab coats, gloves, boots, hoods, masks, and goggles. This equipment is not like the space suit, and is being used under extreme conditions (they are wearing it for many hours in hot humid environments).
