Travelers who passed through Los Angeles International Airport in late February may have been exposed to measles, health officials announced Tuesday.
Officials say a passenger who arrived on a China Eastern Airlines flight on Feb. 21 and had a layover at the airport has been diagnosed with the highly contagious disease, and those who were in Terminal B and the Delta Terminal between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. may have been exposed, the Los Angeles Times reports. Anyone who sat next to this person on a flight will be notified directly.
