An Air France flight bound for Detroit was diverted to Montreal after a passenger from the Democratic Republic of Congo boarded despite entry restrictions related to an Ebola outbreak in East and Central Africa. The passenger was removed upon landing but had not been confirmed infected as of Wednesday. The Bundibugyo virus outbreak has resulted in 139 suspected deaths and nearly 600 cases across Congo, Uganda, and South Sudan.
