Hi there.  Have you been diagnosed with OCD or is this just a natural worry that people have?  Obviously it hasn't been a thought that has been with you for a long time because the Ebola virus just got here.  

Ebola is very well contained in the United States.  It isn't something you have to worry about getting.  This latest patient was a healthcare worker who had direct contact with the infected patient.  I think they are saying it is some sort of equipment malfunction.  

Also right now they are screening passengers coming from those areas especially Liberia.  I wouldn't be surprised if they do not allow them to get on planes until the outbreak is contained over there.
