It doesn't get too far usually. But it's now broken out of an unpopulated area. 37 dead.

Should we be worried?

IIRC the only known airborne Ebola variant is Ebola Reston, named after an outbreak in an animal holding facility at Reston Virginia in 1990. Fortunately that strain was unable to cross the species specific barrier from the Cynomolgus monkeys there into humans.
However, if you have the opportunity to read the not redacted account of that outbreak. You will find that there was one.
