IMO, this is a good thing; it is better to stop or downplay the number of "suspected" or "potential" cases. This is one of those times when you want to have lots of "its not Ebola" results from "potential" cases. Less likely you will miss the real one. Lots of negative (not Ebola) results means we are being alert and doing the right thing.

We have already seen what can happen if just one person who should have be hospitalized is sent home inappropriately.
