An Interesting Way to Travel

EbolaPassengerAtDulles

- The Washington Times - Thursday, October 16, 2014

A photo of a traveler in a homemade “hazmat” suit at Dulles International Airport outside Washington, D.C., is making the internet rounds as hundreds of real suits are selling out online.

The female passenger was spotted sitting down in an airline terminal and dressed in what appeared to be a full-length white onesie, topped with a blue rain poncho, blue latex gloves and a white face mask.

I understand this was a home-made Hazmat suit. {#emotions_dlg.huh}

Well in Asia lots wear masks every day. But anyway this suit this person has on obviously wont help if people who wore real hazmat suits still got it taking care of patients! I have the simple answer, don't fly back and forth for awhile!

We see several folks wearing masks around here during the flu season(s). I do believe it's a habit/custom in some areas, and they continue to be cautious when living/visiting here. Well, good for them! Whatever helps with our safety and health is a good thing. IMO. p.s. Some folks use umbrellas on very hot days; and when I visit very warm/hot areas, I do the same. Much better than baking under the hot sun, especially when one isn't used to hot weather.

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

If this helps a person feel safe and gives them peace of mind then I see nothing worng with it....and if this ebola crisis isn't contained here in the US...this look could become quite common.
