Francois Montinat tells TMZ … he’s suffering from strong nasal and head congestion, and it’s freaking him out because he had COVID back in May and those were 2 of the many symptoms he experienced.
Adding to his worries … he can’t get an appointment for a COVID test and he feels like crap and doesn’t want to stand in a first-come-first-served line for hours. Montinat says he thinks United’s safety protocol is deficient and he’s pondering legal action for emotional distress.
Megan Hubbard and Cameron Roberts were also on the flight and they tell us … Cameron’s been experiencing symptoms since landing in L.A. He says he’s developed a persistent cough and suspects he’s come down with COVID.
Megan’s not experiencing symptoms but the anxiety for both has reached a breaking point … she says she’s seeing a shrink to help her deal with it. Megan feels someone should pay her medical expenses … and you can guess who.
As we reported … United Airlines has not contacted passengers about the COVID-positive flyer onboard. United says they’ve given the manifest to the CDC and it’s their job to contact passengers.
