Lawrence O. Gostin, a global health law professor at Georgetown University, said he thinks workers should be able to go back to the affected region if they do not pose risks to fellow travelers.

But if we don’t allow respite for health workers, we are digging ourselves in deeper by discouraging the dedicated volunteers that we urgently need.”
