As others have mentioned, precautionary measures are only as good as the person using them. So I would wait to see if this person cut corners before freaking out.

Also, Ebola spread to Nigeria quite a while back yet they seem to have it under control. So I think the western medical world can handle it.

This is awful for the people of Africa, but for a guy in Canada there are way bigger things to worry about killing you.
