The passenger in question was travelling from Iran to Vancouver with a layover in Montreal.
Air Canada advised staff who were on the flight about the passenger and staff was asked to report any symptoms to a healthcare professional.
This happened on 14 Feb and just yesterday they informed the airline?!?

That’s the scary/dangerous part, about this horrid disease.
