On a non-Ebola note, got an e-mail that one of our SLC A-320 captains passed away. He was only 54. Flew with him many times on the 88. A finer pilot and person you'd be hard pressed to find. Condolences to his family and friends.

I would imagine that everyone on the aircraft are hyper sensitive to that possibility, the pax Duncan flew here on the 20 sept, I would think any infections on the aircraft would have presented themselves by now

Just when you thought everything was going great in the airline world.......
Second Texas nurse with Ebola had traveled by plane | Reuters
(Reuters) - A second Texas nurse who tested positive for Ebola after caring for a patient with the virus had traveled by jetliner a day before she reported symptoms, U.S. and airline officials said on Wednesday.
The worker at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas had taken a Frontier Airlines flight from Cleveland, Ohio to Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport on Monday, the officials said.
The woman, identified to Reuters by her grandmother as Amber Vinson, 29, was isolated immediately after reporting a fever on Tuesday, Texas Department of State Health Services officials said. She had treated Liberian patient Thomas Eric Duncan, who died of Ebola and was the first patient diagnosed with the virus in the United States

I didn't say they shouldn't be allowed back in the country. With waiting times put in place there is still a way to support them and bring them home. I admire those who want to go and help, but their willingness to volunteer should not be allowed to jeopardize the health of those who do not want to put themselves at risk of dying from Ebola. As for those are coming from Central America? I believe you're supposed to have a passport when crossing international borders, so there's that option. If you made it known that you're not going to get in after having been in a heavily infected country in the recent past and actually enforced it you would not have too many people making the trip only to be turned around.
And at the very least we could put a stop to granting visas to non-citizens from west African countries. Why has this not been done?

Just adding a perspective to the public policy dilemma. If we make it "illegal" then some will follow the path of undocumented aliens and hide, which makes it much more difficult to find and quarantine suspected cases.
