NEW ORLEANS (AP) - New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin and his wife have been placed in quarantine after a passenger on their flight to China exhibited flu-like symptoms.

Nagin's press office said a passenger had "signs and symptoms of an influence-like illness suspected to be of the H1N1 subtype." This comes amid continued global concerns about swine flu.

The office said Sunday the couple and a security guard were placed under quarantine in Shanghai as a precaution and were exhibiting no symptoms.

Hope they quarantined him & his wife in one of the hundreds of school buses that were underwater during Katrina instead of being used to evacuate New Orleaneans. Seems only fair.

So let me get this straight—the swine flew and got the swine flu. Right?

He SHOULD be quarantined... and not for swine flu, either.

Nagin left for China Friday for an economic development trip. He was then to travel to Australia, where he'd planned to speak on climate change and sustainable building,

WTH? Chocolate City Ray is some sort of expert on "climate change" ?

If he doesn’t Madam Pomfrey does, when she heard that Remus Lupin had given Harry chocolate after his encounter with Dementors, nodded appovingly and stated that “at last, we have a Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher who knows his remedies.”
