Travellers beware
Or maybe that should be "Travelers beware". Thanks to The Register for pointing out the remarks made by Secretary Napolitano in the course of a Department of Homeland Security briefing on swine flu:
We're also actively monitoring travelers at our land, sea, and air ports. We're watching them for signs of illness, and we have appropriate protocols in place to deal with those who are sick. Precautions are being taken to protect travelers and border personnel. Anyone exhibiting symptoms is being referred to an isolation room where they can be evaluated by a public health official before proceeding to their destruction.
