Purpose: To give information to airlines on stopping ill travelers from boarding, managing and reporting onboard sick travelers, protecting crew and passengers from infection, and cleaning the plane and disinfecting contaminated areas.
Key Points:
** A U.S. Department of Transportation rule permits airlines to deny boarding to air travelers with serious contagious diseases that could spread during flight, including travelers with possible Ebola symptoms. This rule applies to all flights of U.S. airlines, and to direct flights (no change of planes) to or from the United States by foreign airlines.
** Cabin crew should follow routine infection control precautions for onboard sick travelers. If in-flight cleaning is needed, cabin crew should follow routine airline procedures using personal protective equipment available in the Universal Precautions Kit. If a traveler is confirmed to have had infectious Ebola on a flight, CDC will conduct an investigation to assess risk and inform passengers and crew of possible exposure.
** Hand hygiene and other routine infection control measures should be followed.
** Treat all body fluids as though they are infectious.

Don’t the stewardesses and pilots have unions?
Time for those union dues to be worth something.
We are from the government, we are here to help. Trust us.
Why is this desease here? because they want it here! the enterovirus was brought here by illegals and now they are letting in Africans from inflicted areas as well. When the british wanted to kill off the indians they sold them blankets from small pox victims, feeling warm and fuzzy yet? We are the problem
**When the british wanted to kill off the indians they sold them blankets from small pox victims**
The main cause of smallpox in the Indians was graverobbing what they viewed as ‘perfectly good’ clothes from the buried casualties. Fake indian Ward Churchill’s blatant lies have permeated reality way too long :
“The High Plains smallpox epidemic of 1837 has been analyzed by numerous historians. None of the previous histories have indicated any U.S. Army presence in the vicinity, much less any military involvement in genocide. None have mentioned a word about a boatload of blankets shipped from a military smallpox infirmary in St. Louis. None have mentioned any medical personnel as even being present in the vicinity, much less deliberately violating quarantine by sending infected Indians out among the healthy population.”
“Special cleaning of upholstery, carpets, or storage compartments is not indicated unless they are obviously dirty from blood or other body fluids.”
Because anyone can spot virus colonies on these areas.
If they had specified changing the infected seat, and all the seat covers and carpet panels within 3 rows , the wall panels, and the overhead compartment doors, I might take them seriously. These guidelines are a joke.
Hey CDC/Administration/obama, Here is a Common Sense Idea, STOP SERVICING THESE COUNTRY’S UNTIL THIS IS OVER!!!
What To Easy for you?
The Enemy is within and until we deal with that Enemy we will Never be able to Deal with the Enemy’s outside the Nation!

PREVENTION
PARAPHRASING SOCRATES, THE CDC ADMITES THAT ALL THEY KNOW ABOUT EBOLA IS THAT THEY KNOW NOTHING.
CDC edited out the following text on Sept 19:
Because we still do not know exactly how people are infected with Ebola, few primary prevention measures have been established and no vaccine exists. When cases of the disease do appear, risk of transmission is increased within healthcare settings. Therefore, healthcare workers must be able to recognize a case of Ebola and be ready to use practical viral hemorrhagic fever isolation precautions or barrier nursing techniques. They should also have the capability to request diagnostic tests or prepare samples for shipping and testing elsewhere.
Why did the CDC edit all of that information out? Did the science change, or did the government make the edit for some other reason(s)?
There is no FDA-approved vaccine available for Ebola.
If you travel to or are in an area affected by an Ebola outbreak, make sure to do the following: •
Practice careful hygiene. Avoid contact with blood and body fluids. •
Do not handle items that may have come in contact with an infected person’s blood or body fluids. •
Avoid funeral or burial rituals that require handling the body of someone who has died from Ebola. •
Avoid contact with bats and nonhuman primates or blood, fluids, and raw meat prepared from these animals. •
Avoid hospitals where Ebola patients are being treated. The U.S. embassy or consulate is often able to provide advice on facilities. •
After you return, monitor your health for 21 days and seek medical care immediately if you develop symptoms of Ebola(http://www.cdc.gov/vhf/ebola/symptoms/index.html).
Healthcare workers who may be exposed to people with Ebola should follow these steps: •
Wear protective clothing, including masks, gloves, gowns, and eye protection. •
Practice proper infection control and sterilization measures. For more information, see “Infection Control for Viral Hemorrhagic Fevers in the African Health Care Setting”. •
Isolate patients with Ebola from other patients. •
direct contact with the bodies of people who have died from Ebola. •
Notify health officials if you have had direct contact with the blood or body fluids, such as but not limited to, feces, saliva, urine, vomit, and semen of a person who is sick with Ebola. The virus can enter the body through broken skin or unprotected mucous membranes in, for example, the eyes, nose, or mouth.

Doomsday warning: UN Ebola chief raises 'nightmare' prospect that virus could mutate and become airborne - making it much more infectious
United Nations warns Ebola virus currently plaguing West Africa could become airborne
The longer it moves between human hosts the greater possibility of mutation.
The risk grows the longer virus is living within the human 'melting pot' NGOs have said the Ebola virus is currently infecting five people every hour.
More than 3,300 people have died from Ebola since the outbreak first began.

From Pigs to Monkeys, Ebola Goes Airborne
Nov 21, 2012 | Jane Huston | Research & Policy –

Ebola has a 21 days incubation period before the infested person show symptoms. The CDC maintains that a person infested with Ebola cannot transmit it until they show symptoms of the disease. How can they assure that the person cannot infest another person after 10, 15, or 19 days of being infested by the virus while still not showing symptoms of the virus? The CDC falsely assure the American people that it cannot be transmitted by air although studies in Canada seems to prove otherwise.
When news broke that the Ebola virus had resurfaced in Uganda, investigators in Canada were making headlines of their own with research indicating the deadly virus may spread between species, through the air. The team, comprised of researchers from the National Centre for Foreign Animal Disease, the University of Manitoba, and the Public Health Agency of Canada, observed transmission of Ebola from pigs to monkeys.
They first inoculated a number of piglets with the Zaire strain of the Ebola virus. Ebola-Zaire is the deadliest strain, with mortality rates up to 90 percent. The piglets were then placed in a room with four cynomolgus macaques, a species of monkey commonly used in laboratories. The animals were separated by wire cages to prevent direct contact between the species. Within a few days, the inoculated piglets showed clinical signs of infection indicative of Ebola infection.
In pigs, Ebola generally causes respiratory illness and increased temperature. Nine days after infection, all piglets appeared to have recovered from the disease. Within eight days of exposure, two of the four monkeys showed signs of Ebola infection. Four days later, the remaining two monkeys were sick too. It is possible that the first two monkeys infected the other two, but transmission between non-human primates has never before been observed in a lab setting.
While the study provided evidence that transmission of Ebola between species is possible, researchers still cannot say for certain how that transmission actually occurred. There are three likely candidates for the route of transmission: airborne, droplet, or fomites.
Airborne and droplet transmission both technically travel through the air to infect others; the difference lies in the size of the infective particles. Smaller droplets persist in the air longer and are able to travel farther- these droplets are truly “airborne.” Larger droplets can neither travel as far nor persist for very long.
What do these findings mean? First and foremost, Ebola is not suddenly an airborne disease.
Doctor Boards Atlanta Flight In HazMat Suit To Protest "Lying CDC"
Zero Hedge ^ | 10/2/14 | Tyler Durden
"If they're not lying, they are grossly incompetent," said Dr. Gil Mobley, a microbiologist and emergency trauma physician from Springfield, Mo. as he checked in and cleared Atlanta airport security wearing a mask, goggles, gloves, boots and a hooded white jumpsuit emblazoned on the back with the words, "CDC is lying!" As The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports, Mobley says the CDC is "sugar-coating" the risk of the virus spreading in the United States.
Duck....and cover.....
Airline unions are why Air France no longer flies to West Africa.
Hi, I’m the head of the CDC which is part of the administration that is composed of pathological liars in every high level management and leadership position ..... now trust me!
