John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York has initiated health screening procedures focusing on passengers arriving from countries impacted by the Ebola virus. This measure began on May 29, 2026, reflecting efforts to monitor potential health concerns associated with the disease.

Passengers arriving from regions identified as Ebola-affected are subject to this screening process at JFK. The new protocol intends to enhance monitoring without specifying additional detailed health protocols beyond the screening itself.
