Ebola risk in Spain is ‘almost zero’: WHO
A spokesperson for the World Health Organization said on Monday that the risk of contagion from the Ebola virus in Spain was “almost zero” and described the repatriation of an infected Spanish priest as “correct”.
Speaking to Spanish TV channel Cuatro, WHO spokesperson Gregory Hartl said that “many” Spanish health workers were well-trained to deal with any possible Ebola cases.
He reassured Spaniards that the WHO and Spain’s Ministry of Health, Social Security and Equality were following international protocols to remain in “constant contact”.
Referring to the recent repatriation of Ebola-infected priest Miguel Pajares and nun Juliana Bonoha Bohe, who is not infected but has been admitted to hospital as a precaution, he said: “We have seen how the two people from religious orders were correctly received in Spain. “
“We have just started a new phase and we need a little time but in Spain there are many people trained to deal with these cases,” he added.
Hartl’s comments come after a number of medical professionals slammed Spain’s “improvised” preparations for the repatriation of Miguel Pajares.

I sure as h#ll hope so! Otherwise there’s going to be an even greater shortage of Doctors and other medical people.
Based on what I've seen and the piss poor response thus far. I would be willing to bet health care workers and first responders will stay home should a serious Ebola outbreak occur here. Time to stock up on bleach.
