This is what Mauritius has done, affecting AFRINIC's November meeting.  See <[log in to unmask]" target="_blank">https:[log in to unmask]>  

"Please note that on 17 October 2014, the Prime Minister's Office of Mauritius 
has taken the following decisions with regard to the evolution of the Ebola 
Virus:   

-  Nigeria and Senegal are now removed from the list of affected countries, 
subject to the guidelines of the World Health Organisation;
-  all foreign nationals who have visited one or more of the countries affected 
by the Ebola Virus, i.e., Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone, and the Democratic 
Republic of Congo, during the last two months as from the date of their travel 
to Mauritius, would temporarily not be allowed to enter Mauritius.

In light of this information, we urge AFRINIC-21 participants to take the 
necessary precautions for their arrival to Mauritius.
