MEXICO CITY: Authorities at Mexico City’s international airport said they have installed 10 heat-imaging cameras to catch any departing or arriving
 

passengers with flu symptoms.

Those passing through the facility were also first being asked to feel out a health questionnaire, spokesman Victor Mejia said on Thursday.

The cameras showed passengers in colours corresponding to heat coming off parts of their body, he said, adding: “If the image is yellow, orange or red, doctors will take them to a third check point.”

There, a quick test would be carried out to see whether the passenger should be taken to hospital for an examination for the H1N1 swine flu.

The airport in the resort of Cancun, usually popular with US and European tourists but largely empty because of Mexico’s flu emergency, had heat scanners in place.

Mexico’s transport ministry said five people with suspected flu had been detected in the past few days as they tried to leave Mexico City for international destinations.

The airport in the capital has seen 15% fewer passengers because of the flu, Mejia said.
