(NBC New York) Medical workers at Univ Hospital in Newark, have isolated a sick Liberian airline passenger who traveled from Liberia to Brussels before arriving Tuesday into Newark, NJ on a United Airlines flight.

The Liberian man waited in line with other passengers at Customs when he was singled out for a health screening because of his recent travel history–that is when it was discovered, that he had a fever–its not clear if he had exhibited any other symptoms of the Ebola disease.

On the 17 October, I wrote here that the World Health Organization announced last week that Ebola has a 70% mortality rate.

How many other possible Ebola sickened passengers have to arrive into the United States exposing countless Americans to the deadly disease, before Obama finally bans travel from Ebola ravaged West Africa as some 30 other nations have already done?
