The international labor union SEIU says it has “real concerns about the safety of cleaning crews and other people who work at airports, such as wheelchair agents.”

The union’s Occupational Health and Safety Director Mark Catlin told Here & Now’s Jeremy Hobson that beyond the primary concern for health care workers providing direct care to possible Ebola patients, he is also thinking about the safety of cleaning crews in airplanes and at airports, and even laundering companies that clean hospital bedding and uniforms.

“What’s really been missing [from the discussion] is the fact that it’s employers in this country under our U.S. law undefined under the Occupational Safety and Health Act undefined that have the primary responsibility to maintain a healthy and safe workplace,” Catlin said. “So it’s the employers’ responsibility to take the CDC guidance, mandatory requirements by federal OSHA and other agencies and incorporate those into site-specific plans for how workers are going to be protected, the protocols they are going to follow and how they’re going to be trained and how they’re going to get the equipment.....

WARRENSVILLE HEIGHTS, Ohio undefined The mayor of a suburban Cleveland city put two workers on leave and ordered city hall closed for cleaning because of Ebola concerns.

The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer reports that Warrensville Heights Mayor Brad Sellers took the steps for Friday because the husband of one of the workers had a co-worker who was on the plane that carried a nurse later diagnosed with the virus.

In the CDC's "Ebola Guidance for Airlines" guide, the agency says Ebola spreads through "direct contact by touching the blood or other body fluids (like feces, saliva, urine, vomit, semen) of a person who is sick with Ebola.

In the same guide, the CDC also suggests cleaning upholstery, carpet or storage compartments if "they are obviously dirty."

In the "special considerations" sections, the CDC says, "Special cleaning of upholstery, carpets, or storage compartments is not indicated unless they are obviously dirty from blood or body fluids."

The guide says special vacuuming is not necessary.

A Glendale elementary school is taking no chances after a first-grader became ill over the weekend and was being treated for a serious respiratory condition, according to a letter sent to parents Tuesday.

Officials at Vistancia Elementary School said they didn't have a specific diagnosis for the illness, but were working with the Maricopa County Health Department and had relocated several classrooms to clean and sanitize surface areas, according to the letter.

A Peoria Unified School District official told CBS 5 News the district was investigating the illness as a possible case of enterovirus-68, which has been sweeping the country, but that the county health department has not been able to confirm EV-68.

Should the child test positive for EV-68, it would be the first case in Arizona, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

All but four states have reported cases of EV-68, which has symptoms similar to flu but is hard on children with asthma or other respiratory conditions. No cases have been reported in Arizona, according to the CDC.
