Mike Huckabee is live tweeting from his flight after it was quarantined in Nashville

An American Airlines flight from Los Angeles to Nashville International Airport has been quarantined due to a meningitis scare. We know this because Mike Huckabee is on the flight and live tweeting it:

And we go live to the tarmac…

5 hr red eye flight on @AmericanAir Nashville from LA. On ground for 40 min and now told someone on board is sick & we are being towed to other gate and quarantined until all checked out. Can’t get up to go to bathroom or get off plane. It’s the Russians! I just know it!

1 hr after landing got to far away gate where @AmericanAir will hopefully get us off this plane! Medical personal at gate. Hope it’s not because I got that straw in CA! pic.twitter.com/g5AJvacyqE

Hopefully it’s not serious and we’ll update this post as soon as we know more.

Update:

Kudos to @AmericanAir pilot and crew-handled medical issue on red eye from LAX to Nashville very professionally. We were held for a while as medical personnel made sure the person wasn't Gwyneth Paltrow from Contagion. Seriously, hope the lady is okay–taken on gurney.
