City people don't show rabbits for the most part. But I dunno, we're going to send in the entry and if hraka hits the fan we'll just scratch it and stay home.
There has been lots of talk about it on the ARBA Facebook page.
I think most people aren't worried about it. I don't know what to think, but I didn't plan on going anyway. lol
I did some research for you about the ebola virus. The likely hood of catching it is low. It is harder to catch then the common cold or flu. The virus can not live long in water (like a couple mins) and does not last long in the air. Bodily fluids is the most common/(almost) only way it could spread. Meaning the person would have to cough on your face in order for you to maybe become infected. Blood, urine, saliva, and sweat are other bodily fluids that would carry the virus. So don't shake anyone hands there. xD
The nurse's dog would have to slobber, kiss, or bite something to truly spread the disease (if the dog has it).
So in all technicalities you should be okay. Just wash hands frequently, stay away from coughing, and try not to shake many hands. And at your hotel (or wherever you stay) wash your face every morn and night.

I love to do art. Before December 2014 all art that I did was with a mouse. I now work with a Bamboo tablet. Also please note that I expect something in return for customs, I put time into every piece.
I own rabbits! I love to show my rabbits and and have gotten many first place ribbons, a lot of Best of Breed, Best Opposite Breed, Best of Variety, & Best Opposite Variety awards. My rabbits have also gotten Reserve in Show and Best 6 class. I, personally, have gotten Reserve Champion and Grand Champion awards. I take part in Rabbit Royalty! If you have any questions about Rabbits then please ask and I shall answer as best that I can.
