Ban or not to Ban travel from countries with Ebola outbreaks


Politicians in the Democratic Party are disagreeing on whether there should be a travel ban from those countries with the deadly Ebola disease. Ebola is a virus that has a 90% death rate once a person is infected. It is described as "a terrible disease that has no cure or vaccine." It is rather surprising that there is any debate on this.

Patrick Murphy says YES, have a ban. (I guess when he says he has crossed Party lines 43% of the time, he's not kidding)
Alcee Hastings and Lois Frankel say NO to ban.
Ted Deutch takes the Obama line--(no surprise here) saying temporary suspensions of new Visas.
