CDC officials have rushed to Newark Liberty International Airport after a passenger believed to be from Liberia showed symptoms of Ebola.
The man traveling with his daughter on a United Airlines flight from Brussels was reported vomiting as they landed in New Jersey at 1.50pm.
They were both removed from the plane by a CDC crew in full Hazmat attire.
It comes as the Ebola patient in Texas is said to have deteriorated to a 'critical' condition.
The remaining passengers have now been allowed to leave after being forced to stay on the plane then wait in immigration.
Despite reports claiming the passenger was found to be noncontagious after initial examinations, the New York and New Jersey Port Authority told MailOnline the passenger was not cleared at the airport and has since been taken to hospital.
The man is believed to have flown from Liberia via Brussels, Belgium - the same route taken by Thomas Eric Duncan, the first person to be diagnosed with Ebola in the United States.

Well isn’t this just ducky-———and it could be prevented.
.
The hospital won’t be able to contain info leaks if it’s a public one.
What about the rest of the people on the flight ?
The US Citizens on board could have been taken in separate vans to individual quarantine facilities.
Then they should have fueled the sumbich up and sent it right back.
I am curious how many victims it will take before some of those “Brilliant” yet worthless minds in Washington decide enough is enough and stop any one from those disease stricken countries to enter the US until the disease subsides and regresses. I certainly have no objection to being compassionate, but some where a line should be drawn and common sense needs to prevail.
Sorry, but the passengers on this flight should also have to undergo quarantine for three weeks. Now if any of them caught Ebola due to the closed-quarter, recirculated air nature of a plane, there will be multiple new branches of the plague started here on US soil.
IMPEACH OBAMA ALREADY, DAMMIT!

A freeper’s wife is on that flight.
This is a terrorist’s wet dream. Contract de ebola and go to ever mall across 57 counties that he or she can in 7 days.
They don’t care if they die.
hmmm - cleaned by crews in a hazmat suit while the resr - NOT in hazmat suits - sat in the vomity plane. I hope someone sues obama.
This is a liberal’s wet dream.
a terrorist attack on every plane
>>IMPEACH OBAMA ALREADY, DAMMIT!
He has launched bio-weapons at the people of the United States. The time for impeachment is past.
"Now, just STFU....I told you there is nothing to worry about!"
Some probably boarded connecting flights to other U.S. airports.
You're much kinder than I am. I have every imaginable objection to letting anyone from infected countries into the US. The more the virus is contained, the more likely it is that a solution will be found.
I'm waiting for the fools in DC to say something like. "A ban on travel from infected countries might have been a good idea, before the virus spread. But now it's too late to contain it".
Obola and his trained CLOWNS treat Ebola as a vitamin.
*click* spin *click* spin *click* spin…BANG!
Eeeee-bolllll-aaaaaa ping!
Bring Out Your Dead
We’re gonna need 
a bigger cart!
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
