Hi Bruce and BJ, Please let us know Bruce, I called Ontario Telehealth Gen: 1-866-797-0000 SARS 1-866-797-0007 The nurse at the General Number said: To her/their knowledge nobody’s temp is being taken at airports unless they are considered high-risk. BJ will be asked the following: 1) have you been in close contact with someone DIAGNOSED with SARS 2) have you been out of the country recently 3) have you been anywhere near/in 2 hospitals (Grace XXXX and I forget the other) both in Toronto She also recommended telling them or showing them that she has Lupus. She said "it is known that other illnesses carry fevers, so just a fever would not cause BJ a problem with airport, nor should she be asked as far as she knew, to have her temp taken, only the questions above". She also said if you know anything other than what she/they know, to call the Ministry of Health (or the numbers above). The nursing home where her mother is may have more questions. Saying she has Lupus, should suffice. The only place I saw on news is hospitals taking temperature. So do let us know, Posted and e-mailed to BJ Go girl ! Enjoy your trip and I’ll miss ya.

Ok, thanks Bruce, according to Andy’s handy chart that’s 100.4 F As a person in the biz, is there a way to quickly lower one’s temp, just before getting to the test? ice cubes in the mouth? or are they using the type of thermometers that measure ear temp? Cold cloth on ears? It would be a shame after so much wait and prep for BJ to get turned away at airport or heaven forbid, not be allowed to come back home. I have no info that she will have access to computer where she’s going, nor the time or ability to set it up to e-mail you (FYI).

Response:
Hi BJ If you need anything or an update for N/h I can call for you. Rothnie2…@hotmail.com home Ph 705 327-7543 cell 3318065 second cell 3317434 Ask to speak to the administrator of n/h as soon as possible to jump the chain of command , she will with your story help you see your mom. Now as for you , cider hand rise medical use. If you can not get it then the best bacterial spray or liquid. wash hands every time you touch door handle , ect. do not use same Kleenex again , discard not in purse or pocket. If you can wear latex or rubber surgical gloves this is best, wear all the time changing every hour use to air hands. Buy by box local pharmacy. Start the precautions at your end as any plane is not safe at this time. At Toronto airport you may be tested coming and leaving, pick up PINK imfo sheets at airport will help to explain. I would say for you and yours to always wear , N 95 mask , changing every 5 hours. with your health. All this may sound overdoing it , IT IS NOT. Bruce On.

Hi Everyone, I am leaving tomorrow for a mini family reunion in Toronto. I will be seeing my mother for the first time in 5 years. I am armed with masks and hand cleanser, and will be coming home on Monday. Keep your fingers crossed for me. I am worried that the nursing home, where my mom resides, may be closed because of SARS. At the moment they are allowing limited visits, and guests must wear masks. I may have to sneak in there, but I will not come home without having seen her. BJ-Sk. Canada
