Re: Air travel fuels spread of flu, study looking at post 9-11 travel ban shows
What the Govt says they are going to do and what they actually do are usually quite different. President Bush just last night said we are in a war with terror, our civililization is under siege, and how important being in Iraq was so we fight the terroists there. Now whether you believe that or not is not the issue. The issue is that if they believe it, why are they allowing 5,000 illegal aliens a day to come across the Mexican border when boots on the ground are saying they are finding indications that the illegals are now including Arab men who are pretending to be Mexicans? If terrorists can easily sneak in why not people carrying PBF? (Which is worse?)
While the Govt has all sorts of quarantine plan for airline passengers, initially somebody would have to be coughing up thier lungs with blood running out thier ears before they would ever ground a plane and quarantine the passengers. By the time the Govt got serious about it it would be too late.
