A 50% chance a visitor to UK carrying the deadly Ebola Virus could be there on October 24, 2014 and go unnoticed,mixed with the general population a team of U.S scientist have predicted.
A 75% chance that Ebola would hit the French shores by October 24, 2014.
Belgium has 40% chance of getting hit by the disease, however Spain and
Switzerland have 14% each.
This estimated was based on the Ebola spreading patterns and some airline traffic data across the globe.
Ebola Virus is spreading West Africa rapidly, with an estimated of 3,400
people have died, and an estimate of 7000+ have been infected.
France have a higher risk of getting infected next, since the countries
which include Guinea, have a busy travel links with France.
Great Britain on the other hand lies on the target path of Ebola since
London Heathrow Airport known as one of the world's biggest travel hubs
have a direct and busy travel link to Nigeria.

Some airlines like the British Airways and Emirates have cancelled
flights to the most hit region but other airlines continue their service
on the affected regions.
The World Health Organization have no announcement of travel restriction
but only advising people to stay away from the most infected countries.
