Everyone dies. (Off-Topic)

I know how it's spread, but the point is that someone could enter the United States with the virus while they're still asymptomatic and expose a ton of people without realizing it. He might shake hands with you or cough on your clothes (by accident, one would hope) and you'd have no incentive to thoroughly decontaminate before eating that big Double Baconator for lunch because you'd have no reason to suspect that this person was a carrier of the virus.

EDIT: I'm no Donald Trump. I'm not calling for a total moratorium on travel to Africa, and I know that the two people Emory brought in to treat were quarantined effectively. I'm just scurred, m'kay?
