The death of a male passenger aboard an Arik Air Flight from
Nigeria to JFK Airport on Thursday ,triggered Ebola Fears. The unnamed
male passenger who boarded the flight out of Lagos on Wednesday, died during
the flight after a fit of vomiting .
According to the New York post , congressman, Rep. Peter King said the
man had been vomiting in his seat and some time before the plane landed,
he passed away leaving 145 passengers in fear.
“The door [to the terminal] was left open, which
a lot of the first responders found alarming,”My understanding was that the
passenger was vomiting in the seat, "The CDC went on the plane,
examined the dead body and said the person did not have Ebola, It was what I
was told a cursory examination. The Port Authority cops and personnel
from Customs and Border Protection were there, and they were told there was no
danger because the person did not have Ebola
