"Being on the same continent" would intuitively seem to put SA at greater risk, but with open borders and open airports here in the U.S., I'm not so sure that's a valid point.
A lot would depend on SA's policy of immigration and if they allow W. African travelers full access to their country. I don't know their policies, I do know ours. Theirs can't be any worse, hopefully, they're more logical, not so "politically correct".
P.C. is going to get good people killed, one way or the other...
