It has just been announced that Amber Vinson, the nurse who was the second confirmed transmission of Ebola within the country and the third person to become ill with the disease, flew to Cleveland and back after being exposed to Thomas Duncan.

Frontier Airlines released the following statement, which was published on The Blaze:

At approximately 1:00 a.m. MT on October 15, Frontier was notified by the CDC that a customer traveling on Frontier Airlines flight 1143 Cleveland to Dallas/Fort Worth on Oct. 13 has since tested positive for the Ebola virus,” Frontier said in a statement. “The flight landed in Dallas/Fort Worth at 8:16 p.m. local and remained overnight at the airport having completed its flying for the day at which point the aircraft received a thorough cleaning per our normal procedures which is consistent with CDC guidelines prior to returning to service the next day. It was also cleaned again in Cleveland last night. Previously the customer had traveled from Dallas Fort Worth to Cleveland on Frontier flight 1142 on October 10.

Frontier responded immediately upon notification from the CDC by removing the aircraft from service and is working closely with CDC to identify and contact customers who may traveled on flight 1143.

Anyone who traveled on this flight should contact the CDC at 1-800-CDC-INFO.

The safety and security of our customers and employees is our primary concern. Frontier will continue to work closely with CDC and other governmental agencies to ensure proper protocols and procedures are being followed.

Vinson flew to Cleveland on October 10th. Then, 132 people shared the plane ride back from Cleveland to Dallas on October 13. The nurse was diagnosed with Ebola the following day and is now in an isolation unit at Texas Presbyterian Hospital, where she contracted the disease.

The CDC is urging all passengers from the flight to call a toll-free hotline 1 800-CDC-INFO (1-800-232-4636).

Frontier Airlines says that the plane was cleaned at DFW International Airport, then it traveled to Cleveland on Tuesday and was cleaned again.

As the number of people who have been exposed to the disease increases exponentially, many people believe the time is approaching when it would be wise to go into self-imposed quarantine. Preparedness writer Daisy Luther wrote a detailed guide about getting ready for such an event in a Daily Sheeple exclusive.
