How are people who reflect my concern above disruptive and/or destructive?
The more this situation is played up and the more fear-mongering that occurs, the worse it'll get.
I will bet you that more people die of the flu in the US this year than Ebola.

If things stay the same, I don't see this being a huge problem. It certainly doesn't reflect my concern at this point.
If things grow, and we start seeing a significant number of cases of the general population getting Ebola...and it is understood that the best course for survival is immediate medical help, then obviously people are going to react...and for good reason.

I don't think that is a logical approach to determining when the general population should be concerned.
