They do show up. It's a risk, but so far I'd say it isn't something to be very worried about.
Modern civilization doesn't seem to be too bad at dealing with infectious diseases.
OK, I'll trust the institutional descendants of whoever lost track of the virus samples to contain and destroy the virus samples. They'll probably be paying closer attention now. As long as none are mislabelled and thrown into the general trash.
Actually, I meant that even if people get infected (not very likely), I'm willing to be that modern civilization could contain and end the problem before a significant number of people got infected.
That's probably true too, but I'd hate to think what would happen if it it got loose in place with a less capable medical system, like Guinea.
