If he suspects himself of having any coronavirus symptoms, even if extremely minor, will BA accept him on flight from the US back to the UK? his wife is a EU citizen(Sweden), if that makes any difference. both of them are not US citizens yet.

this question is strictly limited to BA only, as he already found the answer for other airlines that still provide service from US to UK. Other airlines publish this information on their websites, but BA's website says nothing.(unless it's buried deep on their website)
Is this the same person from over a month ago?
if someone has no health insurance gets the coronavirus on a plane, what can she do?
