Dogs have not been shown to be carriers of Ebola. If they were the transmission in Africa would be different. They have lots of dogs and many of them roam freely. Ebola tends to spread more in Hospitals.
Quarantining and one and anything is a good idea. The world needs to be consistent if we want to contain this. Spain killed a harmless dog. In the USA a nurse with Ebola got on a plane and flew across the country.
Flights into affected areas probably should be cancelled until the epidemic dies out. We know what to do, but we do not do it. Instead we make a big show of killing a dog. That does not make me feel safer.
