Just a random twitter post but telling:

@Malcmoore52: @JasonWhitely @wfaachannel8 Those Guys In charge ofthe EU In BrusselsR Barking Mad 33 flights from West Africa per day in2Brussels shudB 000

Disjointed..but basically saying 33 flights from Ebola hot zones coming into Brussels per day!! How many are coming here? What the hell is going on? Perhaps our only hope is if the EU bans the flights..because Obama is refusing to ban them.
Sounds like they are getting mad as hell. His open policy to Ebola exposed people is putting entire world at risk. Especially the western world.

Don’t U.S. Governors have the authority to ban people travelling in from these countries? Why is it a federal issue?

US airlines could easily stop flights in and out of the hot zone to cut down on some of this but noooooooo, they like the $$$$$$ too much. If our airlines would, that would send a huge message to other countries to maybe do the same. It’s crazy Brussels couldn’t care less they’re a major hub for Ebola.

Ebola: Brussels Airport still not checking passengers from west Africa

http://townhall.com/news/world/2014/10/13/france-considers-airport-screening-for-ebola-n1904597

PARIS (AP) — France and other European countries are considering following the lead of the U.S. and Britain to start screening passengers arriving on flights from the West African countries hit hardest by the Ebola outbreak.

The French presidency said in a statement Monday that Francois Hollande discussed the possibility of starting screening passengers from Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone during a phone call with U.S. President Barack Obama.

France will also accept a request by Guinean authorities to set up additional Ebola treatment centers, the presidency said. France is already building one such center in Guinea.

In Brussels, the EU announced health officials will hold a meeting on Thursday to see where they can cooperate better to contain the disease. EU spokesman Frederic Vincent said they would especially center on whether there is a need to check passengers at EU airports.
