The first priority of federal health officials is to protect Americans from Ebola, but an outbreak anywhere is potentially a threat everywhere, the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Sunday. ........Frieden stressed the importance of taking the battle against Ebola to Africa. If we make it harder to fight Ebola in West Africa, we actually increase our own risk, he said. He added that everyone leaving Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone is being screened and that the CDC is looking at a plan to screen everyone coming into the U.S. from those nations.
