Me and my family are going to Lisbon for 2 weeks (vacation) very soon and they have suddenly become very paranoid that there will be a risk of catching the Ebola virus. Nobody there's infected yet, but we fear that it might spread very fast and we wouldn't know until after the maximum of 21 days. Portugal is rather close to the epicentre of the outbreak.
Anyway, what precautions can we take when we're on holiday? I wear contact lenses usually, but I've heard that it's a bad idea if I don't want to catch a disease or even a cold (I don't know why), probably due to touching the eye? Thanks.
