CBS New York<\/a><\/p><\/div>\nAs 1010 WINS\u2019 Gary Baumgarten reported, the mail processing center workers who opened the package were taken to Franklin General Hospital in Valley Stream shortly after 3 p.m., according to FDNY Emergency Medical Services. Both were in good condition.<\/p>\n
After the workers got sick, the FBI screened and tested them \u2013 as well as the package \u2013 with what they called \u201can abundance of caution.\u201d Two Customs and Border Patrol employees were also to be screened.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn this day and age, you just can\u2019t be too careful,\u201d one officer said.<\/p>\n
The FBI said personnel then cleared the scene. The mail processing center is on the outskirts of the airport, and passengers were not affected when it was evacuated, WCBS 880\u2019s Jim Smith reported.<\/p>\n
There were initial reports that the package tested positive for VX nerve gas, but officials said soon afterward that it was unlikely that the substance was the chemical weapon.<\/p>\n
But on Sunday evening, the FBI confirmed that it had been leaking \u201cbeauty supplies and nothing further\u201d all along.<\/p>\n
The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which oversees the airport, didn\u2019t respond to a call seeking comment.<\/p>\n
Customs and Border Patrol didn\u2019t respond to an email.\u201d<\/p>\n
