People exposed to communicable
diseases of public health importance while traveling on a
conveyance should be notified as quickly as possible by public
health authorities so they can be made aware of their exposure,
told what to do if they become symptomatic, be medically monitored
for a period after exposure, or given preventive treatment if
indicated and readily available. In order to do this, emergency
contact information is needed for all persons (passengers and crew)

will allow CDC to carry out its quarantine activities....
