Passenger tested for Ebola after arriving at Newark airport as child who vomited mid-flight is stopped at Chicago O'Hare and quarantined
[DailyMail] o Flagged passengers arrived at Newark Airport in New Jersey via Belgium and at Chicago O'Hare with origins in Liberia
o The Newark passenger was taken to University Hospital in Newark, the hospital designated for evaluating passengers from the international port
o Both Liberian Chicago passengers were deemed not in need of an Ebola test
Were I on one of those flights I'd be concerned as a matter of principle. Why were the two Chicago passengers considered safe? |
More details at the Chicago Tribune. Apparently the adult had typhoid fever in August. He's considered safe now but the article doesn't detail why. |
