Did anything ever come of the CDC plane that went to Guadalajara & returned to either Atlanta or Houston a few days ago?? I haven’t seen/heard/been able to find anything.

Thank you for the posts regarding the planes-it’s very informative. It’s good to see what’s really happening, without having to rely on mainstream media or gov’t. parsed info.!
