Two passengers a father and daughter believed to be from Libera were removed from the flight of 255 passengers from Belgium after exhibiting signs of the deadly Ebola virus during the seven hour flight, WNYW-TV reported.
The remaining passengers were under quarantine on the Boeing 777 at Gate B54 after landing at about noon, according to FlightAwares activity log, while waiting for a team of Center for Disease Control officials to examine the sick traveler.

Now there are five threads.
How soon before they wake up Krispy Kreme to assure everybody?
What about the two esteemed Senators from NJ. What are their thoughts on the matter?
Their thoughts are ‘man I’m glad I fly private.’
""Florida, Texas, D.C., Maryland, now Nebraska....NEXT port will be where? Making progress to introduce this to all states soon, stand by for next installment."""
Where it put Florida, I think it was Georgia first, BUT
We just encountered the next installment of infected. Any takes on where the next one or two will be planted?? This will not stop until they have one landing in every city in the U.S......planned?
I was in Brussels in July 2001, it was infested with mooslimbs even then-they were everywhere in the airport.
From Liberia you say? No, can’t be. What can be done about this? I’m racking my brains but can’t think of anything. How can we prevent disease-carrying Liberians from entering the country?
PC is deadly.
It would be racist to keep this disease trapped where only black people live.
Perhaps while those poor passengers being used as an experiment, the Govt. will play the latest CDC press conferences for them? /sarcastic
*click* spin *click* spin *click* spin BANG!
Eeeee-bolllll-aaaaaa ping!
Bring Out Your Dead
Were gonna need
a bigger cart!
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
I thought the reliable test took around 4 hours, and that the quick test often gave false negatives.
I hope I am wrong, but it seems a bit soon to have an “all-clear” issued.
Maybe some of our medical creepers can help me out here.
I hope they are right. The photo shows a man in gloves and no other protective gear. That is not how CDC or WHO would respond to an Ebola patient.
Wish I knew. It’s too bad they can’t do the four hour test before they leave.
Obamas thoughts are man Im glad I fly private.
It sounds too soon to me too.
If she's been cleared why are the passengers still quarantined. How can they even be certain she's cleared.
I bet that is one truly horrified set of passengers. They'll be wearing hasmat suits if they are forced to travel again.
If it turns out they did have ebola and they let everyone leave and infect their families, I'd expect some major lawsuits.
Politics trumps everything else with this administration. It won't look good if we get more Ebola cases right now.
Well, the panicked “throw money at it” test would be to draw blood and have a bunch of epidemiologists look at it under microscopes.
That way probably doesn’t take long, it’s just astronomically expensive.
Yes. It took 12 hours for the NBC journalist's test to come back. It had taken two-three days for tests done in the US to come back. But, blam!, this one came back in minutes. Or someone is lying, again. No worries. It was the fish plate. Move along.
