A scary message

I come home from class Monday night, and Srinivas tells me the Center for Disease Control (CDC) called.
I was on this horrible trip from Boston to Los Angeles 2 weeks ago, where 12 passengers on the plane I was traveling got sick with vomiting and diarrhea. Our plane got diverted to Chicago, where we were put on another plane to LA, and I ended up missing my San Jose connecting flight and flew back the next morning after staying in LA.

And CDC is calling about that and asked me to refer to the "Contact Investigation, Flight 167"

So what really happened? Am I sick? Am I dying? Why is CDC calling me?

See tomorrow's post for answers to the above questions.
