"CDC is aware of a flight from Vancouver, British Columbia, which arrived at Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport on Friday, May 31," the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said in an emailed statement shared with Fox News Digital about United Flight 1528.

"Public health officers from CDC’s Houston Port Health Station worked with EMS to evaluate ill passengers on board."
