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.

It’s going to be like this for awhile. “Mass hysteria”.
We’re “fleeing” to Southeast Asia for a few weeks.. Keep it safe here!
Just got our last shots.. I love traveling so.
We have not. Liberal/Leftist/Socialist/multi-culturalist fanatics definitely have!
Additionally, Obama and his Democrats want to kill as many Americans as they possibly can. Yeah, I believe that statement.
Live presser in Boston you’re watching?
Would some radical group, ISIS maybe, be nutty enough to contaminate food or worse on an Arab airline? That sounds too Tom Clancy for reality.
PING!
Do you suppose they are going to quarantine all of the passengers for 3 weeks? How do you expect that will go over? This is getting crazy.
Yes no one is getting off the plane.
It’s time.
> Local news in Boston now reporting 10 ill passengers...
I’ll get to see them tomorrow morning on the Red Line (subway).
Hey I’m happy for you. Have a great time.
At least some of us will still be here when you get back...
LOL
Well, let’s face it. An American woman was beheaded in Oklahoma several weeks, (or was it months, years) ago by a jihadist and it isn’t even a news item now. Once again, Obama is rescued by a catastrophe. I wish I would have kept a record of how many times this has occurred during his presidency.
It’s like Clintons getting rescued by ever more brazen activities coming to light, to the point that people just shut down and stopped giving credibility to any of it.
Last week Onona’s wife was on a plane in NJ with a vomiting passenger removed by the CDC and they had to wait almost two hours to deboard.
Wish Onona would check in.
Update: emirates passengers have ‘flu-like symptoms’.
Oh cool, and Indiana reference...
If it’s Ebola the synchronized falling ill is weird. Agree to quarantine here or turn that jet around and go right back where they came from, imho.
Fox is reporting that five passengers have flu like symptoms.
Doubt it’s ebola but I’m giving 100% Hajj related.
That's true, but what about the suspended mist of droplets left in the air after a sneeze? You walk through that on your way back to the lavatory and it contacts your eyeballs- Ebola loves eyeballs as an entry route. Or somebody infected has just been sneezing in the bathroom, and you're the next one in? Strictly speaking, that isn't airborne transmission, but you haven't touched the bodily fluids of an infector that you're aware of.
Just curious, it would seem that it would be a hazard in a close environment like a commercial flight.
