It is time for the USA to work with the WHO and other partners to establish a 21 day quarantine facility(ies) in West Africa for people traveling via jet. The other option is to quarantine those returning after working with Ebola patients in the specialized jet and then deliver them to a hospital to finish a 21 day quarantine.

Patient in New York City tests positive for Ebola – (click here) took subway from Manhattan to Brooklyn night before
A doctor in New York City who recently returned from treating Ebola patients in Guinea tested positive for the Ebola virus Thursday, becoming the city’s first diagnosed case.
The doctor, Craig Spencer, was rushed to Bellevue Hospital on Thursday and placed in isolation while health care workers spread out across the city to trace anyone he might have come into contact with in recent days....
There is something wrong in West Africa with Isolation Precautions. For all these professionals to contact the virus while working their for weeks is really strange. They are all contracting it days before leaving West Africa.
None if this makes sense. They have to be dining with colleagues still working there or their is a degree of sabotage of some kind. It isn't fair to have the airlines carry the burden of maybe they have it or maybe not. It isn't a travel ban so much as quarantine for Ebola workers because of current problems.
It is this particular population of people that have worked with Ebola having the virus when they arrive home. This particular population has to be isolated.
