We need to protect ourselves in order to continue to help other countries fight ebola. Preserving "economies" (as the news states) by allowing travel into the US will be worthlesss if the pandemic continues to grow as there will be no "economies" left to protect. Please ban non-essential travel to/ from ebola affected areas for the benefit of all.

My heart truly goes out to all of those fighting this dreadful disease, Ebola. I sincerely mean this from my heart. Please take heed of my feelings. I don't wish to offend anyone but please sir, ban travel to and from the area that is most affected by this disease in order to contain it as much as humanly possible. I do not want to see a Worldwide outbreak of this sir for humanities sake. Surely those in the affected areas should understand the need for containment and if they do not sir, those that know of these incredible danger to humans should still be allowed to protect themselves and their loved ones. You have to think of the bigger picture at this time and I do respect it is an awful decision to make and I am only to glad not to be one in a power position to have to make this one decision that could save so many others. I am Canadian sir and respect your office and your country for aiding Canada in times of trouble. I would hope you could talk to Mr. Harper, Our Prime Minister and advise him to also ban travel to and from our country for our own safety as well. I would ban travel sir for North America. Thank you.

It is time to institute a temporary travel ban to and from these countries until this epidemic is under control. Anyone who must fly to affected regions (e.g. healthcare workers) should have government permission and should be quarantined prior to entering the U.S. We should be proactive and prevent the disease from entering the country rather than reactive and containing and treating after the fact. This shouldn't be about politics or WHO recommendations, but about doing all that we can to protect the American people. If just one person contracts this disease as a result of this patient, that is one too many, especially if it is a child.
