Rejected petition Ban entrance into the UK from all persons that have visited Ebola affected regions
More details
The only way to protect the people of the UK from the deadly Ebola virus is to completely BAN entrance to the UK by everyone that may have come into contact with the infected. The best option would be to implement a no travel policy to the entire West Africa region, passports should be checked to see if the person/s in question have travelled to an infected region. If they have they should be isolated for at least the incubation period of the virus.
It is the right of the people of the UK to be protected by its government from uncontrolled outbreaks of deadly diseases by sealing our borders from anyone that may carry the virus / disease.
