BOSTON —Medical crews in hazmat suits have responded to an arriving plane at the international terminal at Logan Airport.
A source told NewsCenter 5 that six passengers on board the flight had become sick.
The plane, an Emirates airliner that had arrived from Dubai, was surrounded by ambulances and emergency responders in white and yellow suits.
Massport, which runs the airport, did not respond to several phone messages on the nature of the incident.
However, international airports around the country are on alert for Ebola, though there was no indication that was related to the emergency response.

We do not have the resources to summon such a response once such flights become an hourly occurance nationwide.
I hope the responders follow protocol.
The Ebola panic is going to be more harmful than Ebola.
We've got, what, two confirmed cases in the United States and it is already round-the-clock front page news across the country. Wait until we get a dozen confirmed cases, then a hundred. It's going to be pandemonium. Our health care infrastructure is going to fall apart.
But not Syphilis...
Ladies and gentlemen, we have our October surprise. Keep the citizens from thinking about the upcoming election in the hopes of squeaking through the RATs to allow them at least a 50/50 hold on the Senate (and control with Biden @ 50/50).
Local news in Boston now reporting 10 ill passengers...
Minds? Who cares about minds? It is your feelings that matter.
Coming to an Airport near you. Exposing people who live by you. And ultimately infecting people loved by you.
People holding passports from the nations with out of control outbreaks, should not be allowed to enter Western nations.
The first child isolated will trigger it. Working mothers who compensate for guilt over being absent from their child’s life by becoming hyper-protective, the sort who demand antibiotics for a cold and won’t take no for an answer, will go absolutely ballistic.
They had the fish...
It’s gotta be the Chilean Sea Bass. Obola wouldn’t appear that quickly in 10 people all at once.
If they don’t announce it’s not Ebola 5 minutes after the hazmats board, then you know it is.
I guess, this kind of thing sure makes it tough on the friends picking you up at the airport.
Stressing in press conference you can’t get this from air. No confirmed cases yet in boston. Confirmed cases of malaria and typhoid fever.
And, when the disease gets to Central and South America, they will swarm our border for escape/treatment. It will overwhelm our country. President Obola will do nothing. John Boehner and Mitch McConnell will say nothing.
More falling ill as time passes or incorrect report to start with? Other than some sort of bacteria in food that was served, what would cause that many people to sicken on the same flight, presumably during the course of that flight? How many hours, has any source stated the origin, London? Having never flown Emirates I have no idea what cities are served by that airline.
The more the merrier--makes it sound like food poisoning. It would be very difficult to synchronize that many Obola cases.
Yaknow how many princes there are?
Thousands and thousands.. :) (Sagan off)

Well put; you’re probably right. I watched a press conference by the father of the young boy who died here in NJ from enterovirus (he had just started school), and I couldn;t believe the lack of rage; we’ve had a de facto amnesty here in NJ for decades, and anchor babies are a growing population in our schools.
Reportedly none of the sick are from West Africa.
