Modern air travel will ensure that this Ebola disaster, as bad as what it is , is only the harbinger of dreadful things to come. The world it seem is only now making a response. To little to late.

Nice to see a bit of co-operation on something!

Actually fm I have heard of several instances of bi-communal co-operation on various health issues , some ongoing. Unfortunately these small rays of sunshine in a harsh inhuman world aren't of the stuff to hit the headlines.

Certainly a concern, with the number of people from the African contenant increasing, checks need to be done.the living conditions of many of thease people,which I have witnessed are often cramped and would encourage the spread of disease. The TRNC as a 3rd world environment would see the likes of Ebola spread as it has in many African States it's only defence can be strict controls at ports of entry.
