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.

Talk about ‘Crimes Against Humanity’....geez!

Btw..looks like Twitter may have put Charles Johnson in Twitter gulag. His tweets are not loading. He was right about the Alcon link, but ‘official news’ here is saying boyfriend is NOT showing symptoms. He is at hospital being watched. Keeping fingers crossed.
