Officials Again Warn of Measles Exposure at LAX After 2nd Case Confirmed at Airport

Someone with the highly contagious illness arrived March 5 on United Airlines flight 240 at Terminal 7, Gate 76A and was in the airport from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., the L.A. County Department of Public Health said in a news release.
The next day, the measles patient visited the Enterprise Rent-A-Car at 1719 Wilshire Blvd. in Santa Monica between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m., the agency said.
Last week, officials said a passenger who had a layover at LAX on Feb. 21 could have exposed other travelers in the Tom Bradley International Terminal B and Delta Terminal 3.
Authorities don’t believe the two cases are related. People who were on the measles patients’ flights have been contacted separately, officials said.

I had measles when I was a kid, around 1962 or 1963. So I’m immune. Unfortunately, I also seem immune to making a lot of money.

Globalism. Isn’t it wonderful? This is merely one of its benefits.

I had measles as a kid as well. It didn’t seem a big deal back then.

Bring Out Your Dead
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
This is a model of how a global pandemic starts.

The politicians and media make measles sound like the bubonic plague!

I thought the cable TV series was even better than the movie.
