My wife is becoming worried because her co-worker is flying to Nigeria because her mother just passed away. They work together at a large hospital in a lab(close quarters).

Lemee guess... What'd the mother die from? EBOLA!
Why are you a student that is married?
Have her let hospital administration know. They probably won't let her back to work until at least 21 days after she returns from Nigeria, since the incubation period for Ebloa is 2-21 days.

This. And to add, there have been no new cases in Nigeria for a few weeks now .they succesfully quarantined it.
As big a mess as things are in Nigeria, they are light years ahead of Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone in terms of infrastructure and public health. They are also geographically isolated from the current outbreak by about 1200 miles.
