200 People Traveling Through Atlanta Airport in Self-Quarantines for Coronavirus
Posted by freedomforall 6 years, 1 month ago to News
The general manager of Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson Airport said that around 200 travelers who went through the airport showed possible symptoms of the COVID-19 coronavirus and were told to self-quarantine at home, illustrating how U.S. airports are scrambling to try and contain the spread of the virus.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) is involved in the self-quarantine effort, said Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport’s General Manager John Selden, who provided the first update since federal officials asked airports to start checking for potential coronavirus cases from Chinese travelers. All of those who were checked didn’t have to be taken to the hospital, he added.

Heard that the Ahole calif gov said they are watching 8500 people for the virus...
They over play their hand...it's too obvious.
People should stay home unless it is an emergency trip, until this blows over.
