Harvard University Imposes Travel Restrictions on Ebola Countries

Harvard University has imposed an effective travel ban on Ebola-striken countries, requiring students, faculty, and staff to obtain official permission from the university administration before traveling to affected parts of West Africa, and possibly staying off campus for 21 days after returning to the U.S. from those countries.

The severe restrictions at Harvard, reported early Monday by the Harvard Crimson, "expand on those detailed in August that asked for Harvard students, faculty, and staff to avoid nonessential travel to the three countries." The new restrictions also exceed any guidelines imposed by the U.S. government.

The liberals who run Harvard are at odds with their liberal government in Washington, DC.

Didn’t they get the talking points? The talking points are that travel bans will not help fight the spread of Ebola.
