Plane Quarantined in Denmark Due to Bird Flu Scare
A Singapore Airlines aircraft was quarantined after the Captain warned the airport that a passenger was showing Bird Flu symptoms.
20 crew members and 275 passengers including the 31 year old Swedish woman showing the symptoms were directed to an isolated area in Kastrup airport.
After a medical team examined the woman, she was found to be suffering from an upset stomach. This was the second scare in Denmark this week regarding the deadly H5N1 bird flu virus.
I'm glad that we have pilots who are so paranoid. If not, we'de have that much more to worry about when it comes to wide spread outbreak of a contagious disease.
Of course.. Bird flu is hardly dangerous right now.
