Travelers To Be Screened For Signs Of The Ebola Virus: The State Department has announced that all air travelers heading to the United States who have visited recently Uganda will be screened for signs of the Ebola virus. The department also stated that travelers will be diverted to a select few major airports in order to undergo screenings in the midst of an increasing outbreak in the African nation.
Officials made the announcement on Thursday that beginning later this week, visitors of any nationality, even American citizens, would be re-routed to 1 of 5 airports throughout the country to face “additional levels of screening” if they had entered Uganda within the previous 21 days.
