I have an international flight out of Beijing Airport later today. Does anyone know if passengers should arrive early to allow time for health screenings before international travel? Thanks!

No need to get their early as of now. Might need to allow more time at your destination. Some countries have begun to implement extra screening for passengers on all flights incoming from China.

In previous situation they have a remote temperature sensing device so passenger don't need to stop, just walk through and be scanned.

I just saw on ABC news they are scanning each passenger before or as they exited the airplane in varies countries.

Seattle patient came in 5 days ago, healthy passengers can turn into deadly virus carriers.
