Seems like a common sense way to contain the Ebola outbreak, no?
If you don't want to get infected but someone right outside your home is infected and they want to come in your home, you don't let them in.
A travel ban would probably only delay the disease spreading to here, but a delay is better than nothing. It at least gives us time to work on more cures, stockpile more medicines and perfect hospital contingencies.

This is great advice for hermits and bed-ridden people everywhere

How about using Guantanamo as a sequestration/screening area for all direct and connection flights out of Africa? The cost would be born by the travelers.
That should slow the spread of Ebola by a lot.
