To Fly or Not To Fly should not be answered by a potential patient of Ebola.

The CDC should have control of listing and delisting people possibly infected by Ebola.

"CDC No Fly List" 

The list should be available to the airlines no different than the current No Fly List.

It should be at least a 21 day quarantine list. That is what the CDC No Fly List would be. It automatically drops a person's name after 21 days. There is nothing saying a person's name would not reappear if they have been determined to have a second or third, etc. exposure.

The idea is to create a 21 day quarantine for anyone that has been exposed and is being monitored for fever.

There is the possibility a person's name may appear more than once on the list as the 21 days timeline might expire for a single exposure but they were exposed more than once. So, the last exposure would dictate the date a person's name would fall off the list.

Just because a person's name might appear more than once or a second or third time really is not definitive to infection, simply occurrences of exposure.
