President Barack Obama said on Monday his administration was working on additional protocols for screening airplane passengers to identify people who might have Ebola and would step up efforts to make medical professionals aware of what to do if they encounter a case.
Obama made the disclosure after meeting top administration officials involved in attempting to prevent an outbreak of Ebola in the United States.
After a series of missteps involving the handling of a man who arrived in Dallas from Liberia with Ebola, Obama said "we have learned lessons in terms of what happened in Dallas."

The US feral government has protocols out the wazoo aperture.
This is another "we had bad intelligence" moment, and once again it is not true.
One of these fine days somebody is going to leak something so devastating that Obola will have to flee the country.

I don’t think i ever thot that our government leaders could ever be this corrupt and/or stupid to not simply ban travel to the country while they (and we can help them) get their sh*t together.

Obama's C A T A P U L T will not be stopped.
The White House is so far not considering a travel ban from West Africa . . . "The good news is that it's not an airborne disease."
Well actually..
It's Obama's coordinated assault targeting American people using lethal terminal human beings; CATAPULT dying humans. This explains his apparent disinterest in blocking ebola import.
