Don't let quarantine hysteria deter Ebola health workers: U.N.
Monday, October 27, 2014
By Matthew Mpoke Bigg ACCRA (Reuters) - Governments must avoid doing anything to deter health workers from coming to West Africa to fight ebola and quarantine decisions must not be based on hysteria, the head of the U.N. mission battling the virus said on Monday. "Anything that will dissuade foreign trained personnel from coming here to West Africa and joining us on the frontline to fight the fight would be very, very unfortunate," Anthony Banbury, head of the U.N. ebola Emergency Response Mission (UNMEER), told Reuters.

How the Ebola Outbreak Is Exploited for Commercial Gain
Monday, October 27, 2014
National Journal - By Sophie Novack - Oct. 27 (News) - October 26, 2014 For $34 (plus $5.49 shipping), you can purchase a personal protective kit on Amazon that will probably do nothing to protect you against ebola. Fortunately, there hasn't been an ebola outbreak in the U.S., and your chances of catching it—even without the kit—are virtually zero. But that hasn't stopped sales of this kind of equipment from skyrocketing in the past month. Sales of the kit—which includes a full-body suit, eye protection, two surgical masks, two pairs of gloves, booties, and duct tape—jumped 393 percent on Amazon following the diagnosis of the first ebola case in New York City on Thursday evening. Sales of one body suit skyrocketed 131,000 percent in 24 hours after the diagnosis of the first ebola patient in the U.S. on Oct. 1, according to CNBC.
