Ebola. A question.

071014-MATT-web_3064092aI am not getting hysterical about EBOLA. Someone posted a brilliant statistic about the number of people who are killed by flu every year in comparison which put it all into perspective and as this article states brilliantly – it’s not all about us – at least it shouldn’t be. Brilliant article here.

BUT

Yup you knew there was going to be a BUT.

 

Watching the news this morning they said air passengers will be screened from Paris and Brussels coming through London as both these cities are hubs for West African travellers.

 

Edinburgh and Glasgow have numerous daily flights from here – so why aren’t we screening under exactly the same criteria?

 

Not hysterical.
