1. Just sent 3 employees from our company home.

They have spouses/family members who work for another company that has an outbreak.

4. This could expose U.S. and international travelers to terrorism if.....

the TSA is severely weakened. Many people may not like the TSA, but it's about the only wall we have to shield against attacks like those of 9/11.

I'm guessing the regular military or National Guard might get a call for special training duty.
