Sad. It sounds like he was late getting help because his first blood test came back negative for Ebola after he developed symptoms.
I doubt there was anything we could do as he was so sick before he came here.

Wait, I thought we were Ebola free as a country?

This is very sad. I have a very good friend who is from Liberia. He lived in the refugee camp for many months before he was given permission to come to the United States. He and I bunked together on the MS Gulf Coast when we were first-responders after Katrina. He loves the U.S. He has a perspective on things that few people tend to possess.He still has extended family in west Africa.
