He would have been inconvenienced if we had quarantined travel from Ebola areas ...

I don’t know which mask he’s wearing, but if it is an N95 or a N100 mask either of them aren’t going to help much.

Why?

The Ebola virus is 0.08 microns in diameter.

The N95 mask filters down to 0.3 microns and the N100 mask, 0.1 microns.
