PARIS: An Air France plane from the Ebola-hit west African country of Guinea was quarantined in Paris for two hours Friday after the crew suspected a passenger may have the deadly disease, the airline said.
The flight from the Guinean capital Conakry landed at Paris’s Charles De Gaulle airport at 5:28 a.m. (0328 GMT) with 187 passengers and 11 crew members on board.
Emergency services conducted checks for fever on all those travelling after a dirty toilet sparked concern that a passenger could be infected with the deadly and highly contagious disease, which apart from other symptoms triggers severe diarrhoea.
