Dude from Ireland who’d been working in Sierra Leone until 2 weeks ago turns up dead. He was 44 and being treated for ‘malaria’.

This is where normalcy bias can do the most damage. 'Everyone knows' Ebola is an African disease (it can't happen here, right?)

Coupled with initial symptoms which mimic so may other diseases that could cause a problem if/when Ebola infected patients are encountered.
