There would be total panic if it had come back positive so draw your own conclusion.
Because all lab tests, particularly the rapid field tests, are always 100% correct...
So, all the passengers and crew on the flight have now been released from quarantine?
It would certainly help if, in addition to claiming she tested negative for ebola, they gave what the cause of death was. Had she been sick for some time, or only developed sickness on the flight? Just hearing the negative ebola test is not enough information with the world-wide ebola concerns.
I’m sure they will let everyone know the cause of this woman’s death. Hopefully we won’t see the word “unexpectedly” start popping up there, too.
The Truth is out there.
Years ago, an elderly passenger on an Olympic Air flight from Athens died in the aisle just as we landed in NY. The stews had us stop over the body on the way out the door. I never flew Olympic again.
Point is, these things happen.
I thought it was transmitted by contact with body fluids from an infected person.
False alarm, if you can believe the government report. In this day and age, there is always at least a little doubt that we are being told the truth.
Thank God it was a false alarm... this time.
Sad....but not unusual..
I have been on three airplanes where elderly people died (including the blues singer Solomn Burke).
Air travel is rough on the body.
(Of course, the last time I flew through Heathrow, an airliner from Africa was going through customs at the same time and they caught some folks trying to bring in a suitcase full of bush meat....so, it’s only a matter of time.)
You know, my limited reading makes me think that it takes about two weeks to die of Ebola after total organ shut down and nasty welts covering your body and bleeding from every pour and stuff.
This women vomited on the run way then died that same day.
Doesn’t quite sound like Ebola.
Probably some bad airline food.
