Delta Flight Quarantined After Landing at Chicago Midway

All the info I can find for now, but the story is developing.

Nycaviation.com

A regional jet operated on behalf of Delta Air Lines was under quarantine in Chicago Thursday evening after a passenger fell ill.

Delta/Comair Flight 3163, a Bombardier CRJ-200 (N811CA), landed in Chicago from Detroit just before 3:30 pm.

There were unconfirmed reports that the ill passenger had been traveling for over 24 hours, possibly from Africa, and was suffering from a rash.

The Centers for Disease Control confirmed to WBBM Newsradio that they were investigating a “contagious situation.”

Flight cleared shortly before 6pm

I'm in Chicago, so I'll keep an eye out for zombies, just in case.

An update on the OP's source link:

UPDATE 7:00 PM ET: The plane has been given the all-clear after the passenger was diagnosed with bug bites, not a communicable disease.

I was thinking the same thing, just great Chicago is ground zero for Zombie Land. Glad it was just a precaution.

They'll just be saying that to keep you watching, they have advertisers to please.

Got news for you, most privately owned bunkers won't protect you from a virus.

Actually bunkers that are installed with HEPA filtration systems and other systems to filter out against biological and chemical attacks doe the trick just fine....

and the filtration systems are widely available.....i dont know why you would have a bunker without one of these systems in place........seems kind of pointless to me?

Posted this in the other thread about this however I will bring it here to.

The flight never left. It was never cleared for take off. It's still at MDW

Unless that record has misinformation, I think the situation is much more suspicious than the news report explained... I don't know if anyone else noticed that they tried to apply the common (although often accurate) scapegoat of unnecessary airline delays inconveniencing their customers... even though its a potential epidemic situation! Safety and security are meaningless in our trained minds in the face of subtle inconvenience!

That record cannot have misinformation. It is the flight planning website most pilots go to. The information there is supposed to be the most accurate and up to date as possible. The flight plans and cancellations affect every pilot in the sky so I would assume they would not make this info up. If the site shows the flight is grounded it better be on the ground. If it was in the air and was not accounted for it would be a far worse situation.

Then based on the authenticity of that resource I'd say that the authorities on site arent telling us the whole story, we can only wait or preform further research to determine the nature of this deception however...

I just finished listening to three BBC episodes of Pandemic.

Airborne ebola, wouldn't that be fun.

You'd really be running for the bunker then.

I think we have all overlooked the obvious, it could be some nasty batch of "the big C". Any kid can tell you the cooties are bad news and will certainly make you an outcast shunned by society..
