BREAKING: Bad News For Ebola... Things Just Got Bad In NYC In what is being deemed an abundance of caution, New York City residents are being asked to self-monitor themselves for symptoms of Ebola. At the end of October, 117 residents were under voluntary observationbut authorities suspect that number is actually closer to 357 today. In comparison, that number was 0 last year. Quarantines appear to be the result of the recent diagnosis of Dr. Craig Spencer, and others who have recently traveled to the U.S. from Liberia. Many Americans are beginning to wonder if the help is worth the risk. And citizens are pleading for a 21-day quarantine of anyone who has traveled to the Ebola-ridden country. Some are hopeful that the new Republic Congress will institute a short limitation on travel. Lets keep in mind that quarantines have spread to Philadelphia, and the potential spread is not isolated in the big apple. What do you think? Does Congress need to take precautionary steps to protect Americans from contracting the deadly disease?
