“...a West Africa-style outbreak is highly unlikely in the industrialized world.”
I don’t know why they really think that.
I grant that we have better sanitation, and generally healthier people and better treatment, BUT we also have a very high population density and I don’t think our people are any “better” than West Africans in dealing with fear, panic, ignorance, etc. Or at least I wouldn’t want to count on them to be sufficiently better.
In any event, the spread has to be stopped in Africa itself. They need to close the affected countries entirely, we keep saying this, but no one is listening.
