We now hear that there is a reported Ebola illness in France. I can see this illness coming to our shores within weeks NOT months.
Its true what Bob Geldoff has said that 'we' have been so slow with this terrible virus.
All you need is someone to get off the plane at Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted even London City, with this and bingo.
Airports have been very slow to check on this. The Health Minister has said that we will cope - we are talking about a deadly virus, with no known cure
We are also forgetting the biggest problem that UK shore face - illegal immigrants (not having a dig here) coming via Lorries, under the Channel Tunnel. We already know about the camps sites in Calais.
It just needs ONE of them to get the virus, gets into the UK - and that's it.
I feel that the UK has to close all its doors until this virus is clear and that we have a drug that can kill it, before it hits our shores.

Ebola isn't airborne. It's fine, even
when it does reach the UK, which it absolutely will.
It is deadly, however it is not especially infectious and it's only infectious when symptoms show, it doesn't have a long incubation period where a carrier is infectious.
Chill. There are a ton of things far more likely to kill you than Ebola, unless you're planning on licking the bed sheets of, or having intimate contact with a sufferer.
