Ebola and the impact on East Africa — Steps4Good
http://www.steps4good.org/2014/11/06/ebola-and-the-impact-on-east-africa

We are as far away from the affected West African countries as New York is from London. In fact, London and Paris are closer to the Ebola epicentre than Kenya is. You can only catch Ebola by direct contact with body fluids from an obviously infected person, and since there is no one with Ebola in Kenya your chances of contacting it are therefore zero.
