Ebola Humanitarian Crisis, Not Epidemic: West African Tourists To Stay In U.S., NYC Heavy Screening At JFK Airport During Holiday Travel
According to published reports, tourists from West Africa will be allowed to remian in the U.S. for over a year. Reports say tourists with temporary visa status from Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone will be permitted protection from deportation.
Several states have reported infection from the virus now termed, 'Ebola Humanitarian Crisis, Not Epidemic' including Nebraska, Texas and New York. In a recent infection, New York City treated its first patient with the Ebola virus - a doctor working with 'Doctors Without Borders' to treat infected Ebola patients tested positive for the virus after his return from West Africa.
New York's mayor Bill de Blasio and Governor Andrew Cuomo told USA Today, "We want to state at the outset, there is no reason for New Yorkers to be alarmed.
Governor Cuomo was quoted as saying in the USA Today report, "We are as ready as one could be for this circumstances.'' New York's preparations for Ebola's entry into The Big Apple were much better than other locations in the U.S. such as Dallas, where one man infected from the Ebola virus outbreak died, and two nurses are being treated.
Meanwhile, there will be strict screening for Ebola infection at Nw York's John F Kennedy Airport during the holiday travel season.
