Sry, but I’m still confused on this:

“The period of 42 days, with active case-finding in place, is twice the maximum incubation period for Ebola virus disease…”

“Recent studies conducted in West Africa have demonstrated that 95% of confirmed cases have an incubation period in the range of 1 to 21 days; 98% have an incubation period that falls within the 1 to 42 day interval.”
