A TikToker With Eczema Claims She Was Pulled Off A Flight ’Cos Staff Thought She Had Monkeypox

A woman has claimed she was taken off a plane to be interrogated about her eczema after staff believed she had monkeypox. TikToker @jacqueline.ngu said she was “humiliated” when staff escorted her and her wife off a Spirit Airlines flight in the U.S. and demanded she proved she had a skin condition. She said the staff asked her to produce medical documentation to confirm that her visible condition was eczema and not a viral disease. “They had me get off the plane in front of everyone along with my wife to interrogate me about the eczema I’ve had my whole life,” she said. “They asked me to provide medical documents and told my wife to watch her attitude.”

misinformation leads to discrimnation/hostility. everyone with a visible non-contagious skin condition has been anticipating this #monkeypox#eczema
