The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is making some changes when it comes to monitoring air travelers who have been to countries affected by Ebola.
Visitors, aid workers and journalists will be tracked for 21 days after they return to the United States from Liberia, Sierra Leone or Guinea. Travelers from those countries will be given kits to track their temperature, and they must report their status to health officials every day.
News 12 hit the street to ask residents what they think of these changes.
