An entire British Airways crew was reportedly isolated in Singapore after one of them tested positive for Monkeypox.

 

According to Mail Online, the crew will be quarantined for 21 days.

 

After landing on Sunday evening, health officials detected one steward who was infected.

 

He was detected during a test carried out on the staff.

 

A BA insider said, “One of them had it, so they impounded the whole crew. Now they have got to spend 21 days in quarantine.

 

“Everyone has been told not to talk about it – but it’s all everyone is talking about.”

 

The flight is on British Airways’ flagship London to Sydney route, which goes via Singapore.

 

A BA spokesman said, “We’re working closely with the Singapore Health Authorities and have offered assistance with any information they require.”
