[QUOTE="Michael H. Standart, post: 185370, member: 79064"] >>Are there any articles or chapters of books that explain this process? Cheers, JG<< I'm sure there are, however what little I know is information picked up piecemeal over the years. The examinations would have started before a third class passenger even boarded the ship, and anyone found to be infected with something would be denied boarding. Harsh but it tended to nip things in the bud then and there. Since the shipping lines were financially responsible for repatriation of a person was denied entry into the United States, they tended to be rather thorough about it. Aside from not wanting to put others at risk, they didn't want to get stuck with the bills for taking somebody back to wherever they came from. [/QUOTE]
