Constant travel is part of my work responsibilities but given the circumstances ...

No one suggests an outright ban on all travel, but I would be the first one to agree there needs to be several major steps taken immediately: isolate the African countries and all people residing in them now from traveling, then take the extreme measure of requiring some type of medical examination prior to being permitted on board (keeping in mind that there is some sort of incubation period for Ebola), etc. Third ... being inside an airplane when someone is ill, is so bad. Imagine the bacteria, germs and viruses being recycled and distributed to the air system. You may laugh, but I would gladly take the extra precaution and have my own oxygen bottle to breathe from, only if I was allowed to.
