And what of the flight attendants on the 2 United Airline flights? Have they (under a policy of extreme caution, concern and consideration for their customers) been told by United Airlines that they won’t be working for 3 weeks, or are they still on the job serving hundreds of passengers?
“........CDC officials have said that there is no risk of catching the Ebola virus from passengers who shared commercial airline flights with the first confirmed U.S. patient.
United said Wednesday it agreed with the agency’s declaration.
“The director of the CDC has stated there is ‘zero risk of transmission’ on any flight on which the patient flew because he was not symptomatic until several days after his trip and could not have been contagious on the dates he traveled,” the company said. “While the CDC states it is unnecessary for it or the airline to contact others who were on the patient’s flights, United is providing information about the flights United believes the patient took, based on information provided by the CDC. We are ensuring our employees have this information and suggest that any customers who have concerns contact the experts at the CDC for further information.”
