Can a burn victim travel from Greece to the USA on an airplane?
My 20 year one son is in Greece helping refugees. He fell into some sort of quicksand that had a boiling hotspring underneath 2 days ago. He has deep 2nd degree burns from the knees down (both legs). I want to get him home ASAP. Is it safe for him to
yes, he can travel
Thanks
