132 passengers were on board.

Those in close contact with Duncan pre-hospitalization went up and down from 18 to 100 to the mid-40s.

Those in close contact with Duncan post-hospitalization is at about 77, with at least 2 testing positive and the boyfriend of one also in isolation for observation.

So, roughly, that is 300 people, and that excludes the passengers on Duncan's flights to Brussels, Dullas and Dallas.

There's basically zero chance of exposure on the flight. The guy puking blood on the flight into Nigeria who died a few hours later only infected the woman next to him. There is obviously a nonzero risk for someone sitting next to the Ebola victim, but it is pretty low and basically zero for everyone else.

Further evidence: nobody came down with Ebola from the apartment Duncan stayed in.

But we don’t need to stop the flights from West Africa. This is no problem.
