Thanks everyone.

There is growing interest in the public health field in how to prevent the spread of illness on a 'common carrier transport'; just wondering if, on your end, anyone (ie your employer) has made you aware of this and if so, have they provided any training, especially in preparation for a pandemic flu.

Many exercises/run-throughs taking place today also involve what to do once the plane is on the ground - if a px is ill/at risk of spreading illness to others, how to keep additional people (crew, ground EMS) from picking the disease up.... eg, making makeshift quarantines out of hangars, etc. (out of your hands at this point, I'm assuming?)

If anyone thinks of anything else, shoot it my way.... including, if your employer has ignored this altogether!
