The other choice would probably be Boston. I can see why they picked Bangor. It's out od the way, far less media attention than there would have been in Boston. Plus, it's in a rural area. Bangor is a small city/town and Maine is a rural state. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 38368576 where did the flight originate? i thought it came out of Africa.... |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 39988244 Hungary 08/02/2014 04:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The jet transporting the Ebola patient to Atlanta first stopped at Bangor's International Airport, Maine. We have not seen any report of this anywhere before or after other than the one local news , WABI, who filmed and announced it this morning. The folks on the plane got out, no gloves no eye wear, no gowns, walked around for awhile, came in contact with people outside waiting ( picking up medical supplies) fueled up and left. They were there for about an hour. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 58888703 [link to www.facebook.com (secure)] [link to wabi.tv] a great big SO here… you people are going overboard in the fear area and those of you IN fear will be big targets if it spread because of like attracts like |
