DRC Now Imposes 21 Day Waiting Period — And Medical Monitoring (For Ebola) — On International Travelers, Leaving Ituri Province…

This below should convince skeptics that this is a very severe outbreak.

And as we’ve repeatedly said, there is no approved vaccine for this Bundibugyo version of Ebola. Here’s the latest:

…A June 24 decree signed by health minister Samuel-Roger Kamba requires anyone identified as a contact of a confirmed or ​suspected Ebola case to undergo 21 days of ⁠active health monitoring from their last exposure. During that period, all travel, domestic or international, is banned unless expressly ​authorized by health authorities.

The same monitoring rules apply to health workers, laboratory staff and response teams returning from affected areas, who must also obtain prior approval before travelling internationally.
More broadly, anyone who has stayed in an Ebola-affected province may only travel abroad ‌after ⁠spending at least 21 days outside the area.

All outbound international passengers are now required to complete a health declaration form issued by border health authorities, with airlines responsible for verifying compliance as ⁠an additional screening measure….

I cannot fathom the six SCOTUS “Justices” who’ve decided it is okay to send people back to countries of origin, where it has already been determined they will be tortured or killed, outright.

And that’s after Congress expressly gave them the right to litigate whether they could stay here in the US, with “temporarily protected” status.

Tangerine 2.0 proposes to end all that without additional notice or opportunity to be heard. That is far less than what our founding documents require of us — for all “persons” on our land. Out.
