Asiana flight attendant on Incheon-New York flight infected with COVID-19
Asiana Airlines said Tuesday it has asked 12 cabin crew members to self-isolate after their colleague on a Incheon-New York flight was diagnosed with the new coronavirus. The infected flight attendant flew with the 12 others on the flight OZ222, which left Incheon last Tuesday (Korean time) and returned on the flight OZ221 from New York Thursday (US time), according to Asiana. The purser reportedly travelled in his private car to Gangwon Province, Saturday and Sunday. Sunday, the cabin crew member showed symptoms, such as a fever, and on the following day, he was diagnosed with COVID-19. The 12 crew members are not subject to self-quarantine, the company said. But the company put the 12 employees in self-quarantine for 14 days in a pre-emptive measure to prevent the spread of the virus, a spokesman said. <br/>
