Ebola Screening

We were stopped at the border crossing from Namibia into Botswana for an Ebola Screening. Which basically meant that the health specialist looked through our passports to see if we had been in any of the affected countries since the epidemic had broken out.














Both Vince and Ric had been to Nigeria and Vince had stamps from other affected countries, but their travel was outside the range of the epidemic.








Strangely, Ric tells me that he was not screened coming back into the United States. I'd like to think it is all computerized and something would come up on the screen in that little passport control booth, but I am not at all sure there is that much coordination between countries. Scary.
