The plane that transported an Ebola-infected nurse from Cleveland to Dallas was cleaned and put back into service the next day, according to Frontier Airlines.

The plane has flown to at least one other U.S. city after being cleaned in Dallas, according to the airline, which confirmed it was cleaned again in Cleveland on Tuesday.

The plane that transported Vinson was cleaned after her flight and then put back into service the next day, according to Frontier Airlines. The airline stressed that the flight was the last of the day and that the plane was cleaned "within CDC guidelines" after Vinson's flight.

Frontier Airlines has not confirmed what other cities the plane was flown to besides Cleveland, where the plane was cleaned again on Tuesday.

Cleveland Hopkins International Airport Director Ricky Smith said that since this morning, the Frontier Airlines aircraft has been decontaminated twice at a remote location at the airport. It was scheduled for a flight to Denver today, Smith said.

I’d sure like to know a lot more about this CDC cleanup protocols. Most of the virii and pneumococci I’ve caught over the past couple of decades have come on plane rides.

I call BS on this. What did they do, put new magazines in the pockets? Give each seat a new cleaned blanket? Give out new barf bags?

24hrs to scrub down a jetliner???? I don’t trust this story.

My Rush Limbaugh B.S. Meter is pegged on “high” on this news-to-calm-our-customers story. Oh of course it was the last flight of the day. Sure it was decontaminated twice,and of course it was at a remote location. Total B.S. Just like all the other lies. If the powers that be are speaking, they are lying. We know that. Unfortunately, there will probably be hundreds and hundreds of dead Americans because of our inept gov’t and an ineligible affirmative action president who will not do the most basic protective measures for our country. Stop the flights, close the border, etc. His ideology comes before all else. He will watch dispassionately as Americans die.

I just saw on the news that 1) the CDC has barred everyone who’d cared for Duncan from flying. This nurse flew in violation of that ban. 2) Contrary to earlier reports, she was symptomatic when she boarded the plane.

Did it say when they barred them? I thought she was probably believing the hype that there was no chance she could get it, so blithely flew home and back. I feel so sorry for her.
