Topic: Via train quarantined in northern Ontario, 1 dead

Considering the facts at the time the authorities took the proper steps IMHO. Humour directed at the person who passed away and the families involved is shameful and very low class jzmtl
. 

  The response was completely proper IMO.  The facts sure sounded like some sort of outbreak.  There's no way they could have known in advance it was a coincidence, and I'm glad they took proper measures.

Also agree about the inappropriateness of using a "rofl2" emoticon in this situation.

Reports say she died from the type of blood clot that happens when one sits too long like on a long distance plane ride.

Surely she had ample opportunity to get up and walk around on the train.  A sad story nonetheless.

I once sat on a train for 24hours and didn't move, it was the most excruciating thing ever!

Many people simply don't realize they can get blood clots from sitting for extended periods.

Funny how they say sitting for long period cause, there a hockey player for the Flyer who is out because he has clot
I do not think they really know what cause a clot
