WH remains opposed flight ban from West Africa on grounds it might provide incentive to some travelers to conceal origins when entering US.

So, in other words, because some people might lie to get in, let’s let everyone in. Makes perfect sense.
It's the Administration estimate that only 150 passengers a day arrive in US from Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea.

Why do I not find “it’s only 150 a day” at all reassuring?
Those 150 each contact another 150 who each contact another 150 and so on and so on…
