Liberian Passenger with Ebola Symptoms, Daughter Removed from Flight in New Jersey

It is now being reported that officials from the CDC met a United Airlines flight last night in Newark and removed a passenger who had been vomiting on the flight along with his 10-year-old daughter.

The sick man and his child were whisked away in masks and protective gear. The plane had come from Brussels, and the two passengers were thought to have originated from Liberia — the same travel path Ebola Patient Zero Thomas Eric Duncan took when he arrived here September 20th.

Via New York Post:

The father and daughter, whose names were not released, remained in quarantine last night at University Hospital in Newark, the law enforcement source said.

The father had been outfitted from neck to toe in his own hazmat suit, his face still masked, by the time he was wheeled into the hospital’s trauma center.

The CDC and the hospital were releasing no information on the father’s condition as of early Saturday evening.

The remaining passengers aboard the United Airlines flight 998 were held on the Boeing 777-200 twin engine jet for about two hours, then were taken off and questioned for another couple of hours before being allowed through customs, multiple fliers told The Post.

Nice that they held the rest of the passengers on the airplane for TWO HOURS before they allowed them to be free of the small shared space for more questioning…

As Melissa Melton reported yesterday, the White House has zero plans to halt any flights out of the Ebola-stricken African nations, even though this has already and continues to put Americans’ lives in danger every single day, so stories like these are about to become a lot more common in the coming weeks.

In fact, the CDC Director found it within himself to actually say that banning flights from these countries will somehow end in even more Americans getting Ebola (not that he could explain how that would logically work).

More on this story as it develops.
