And so the Ebola travel bans come tumbling in. The Caribbean Islands leading the pack.T&T has banned not only travelers from Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia but also Nigeria and Democratic Republic of Congo. Jamaica banned Guinea,Sierra Leone and Liberian travelers. Guyana, Saint Lucia, Haiti ,Colombia joined the fray. In all fairness these are mostly small poor Island nations that depend heavily on tourism as their foreign exchange earner and truly lack the resources both financial and human to handle an outbreak. My grief is that Nigeria was included, by Monday October 20th WHO would give Nigeria the all clear, 42 days free of a life case and Nigeria would formally be declared Ebola free. I call on the governments to dynamically review this ban, what if i or any of the many Nigerians resident here have a family emergency and need to travel to Nigeria, would we be denied re-entry? So far there has been more hysteria by the International community than help to the affected countries and the media is not helping matters. #EBOLA
