apparently she complained of feeling unwell at Heathrow but was allowed to board an internal flight to Glasgow - then she was returned via military vehicle to London …….. she should have taken more responsibility - before she flew out to Sierra Leone she praised the training so surely that training included the Hospital where any sufferers would be treated
