At least half-right. There is at least one confirmed case (who seems
to be recovering). We are following this quite closely at Outbreak
(see my signature) and haven't yet heard about a city quarantine.
There are some possible contacts of the confirmed case who *may* have
Ebola and are in isolation.
Checkout Outbreak (especially the Active Outbreaks page)...
