Ebola Scare at Lynden Pindling Airport: Low Risk

Health officials at Lynden Pindling International Airport isolated two pilots from the Democratic Republic of Congo due to fever concerns, but no Ebola cases have been confirmed. The pilots, a British-Australian and a French national, were part of a low-risk cargo flight group. The risk to passengers and airport staff is minimal, as the pilots did not have contact with Ebola patients or handle bodily fluids. The World Health Organization assesses the Ebola outbreak risk as high in the Democratic Republic of Congo, but low globally. The US has temporarily banned entry for lawful permanent residents from the region due to Ebola concerns. The Ministry of Health and Wellness is monitoring the pilots, who have not tested positive for any infectious disease. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
