Imagine hearing a pilot ask, "Is there a doctor on the plane?" -- and the person who jumps up is the pumped up, cleavage bearing, sleeve-deficient boob-job specialist Dr. Rey!
Last night in Jersey, the chesty "Dr. 90210" star told us how he sprung into action when passengers suspected an 11-year-old Scandanavian girl was coming down with the swine flu during the flight.
Though he didn't have a quarantine bubble available, Rey claims he did the best he could -- treating the sick little girl with a quick fix of sugar, water and instructed her to get further medical assistance after landing.
It's the second time Rey has "saved the day" during a flight -- back in May '06, the karate expert helped take down an 80-year-old man who rushed the cabin.
E.I.E.I.Oh no! A TMZ employee is down with the swine, and we think there's a connection to a boy band and Dr. Sanjay Gupta.
Chad Weiser just called with the bad news. He's got the H1N1. And here's where the plot thickens. Chad works in the production of TMZ TV and handled the tapes we got of Brian Littrell and Dr. Sanjay Gupta, both swine flu survivors.
No one gets out of the office all day, so it's like a petri dish in here.
Swine flu has been the ammunition for a lot of jokes recently, but last night, Ice-T reminded everyone why it's still a serious issue -- it killed someone close to him.
The rapper and his wife Coco were walking into a Star Magazine party at Bardot last night -- where Ice told TMZ he didn't realize the severity of the illness until recently, when one of his friends caught it and died.

Our cameraman lathered on the hand sanitizer before talking to former swine flu patient Dr. Sanjay Gupta -- but according to the good doc, pouring on the Purell wouldn't totally keep the pig virus at bay anyway.
In Malibu last night, Gupta gave us the 411 on H1N1 and celeb infectee Brian Littrell, saying dude probably wasn't contagious yesterday when he flew in from NY -- because the Backstreet Boy told The Gup his fever has passed when he went airborne.
FYI -- our photog who shot Littrell at LAX is now sick with flu-like symptoms. No word on how the guy who shot this footage is feeling ... yet.
Pigs don't fly -- but yesterday one Backstreet Boy just infected with the swine flu did.
After being quarantined in his NY hotel with the virus since Sunday, Brian Littrell finally got the A.O.K. to travel back to L.A. -- and though he said his doc cleared him for human interaction, our pap wasn't taking him up on any proposed mouth-to-mouth contact.
Tom Arnold is in serious danger of a Swine Flu fallout -- not because he caught the sickness ... because last night he described it as "the flu they named after my ex-wife."
FYI, Tom has three ex-wives -- Roseanne Barr, Julie Champnella and Shelby Roos. You decide which one he's talkin' about.
UPDATE: Brian just released the following video, apologizing to his fans for contracting the virus. Don't stand too close to your monitor, he looks contagious....
I don't care who you are, or where you're from ... you better stay away from Backstreet Boy Brian Littrell, because he's got the Swine Flu.
The Boys' rep just announced the singer has officially contracted the virus known as H1N1, which means he's probably suffering some, if not all, of the following symptoms:
As of right now, the three remaining Boys -- Nick Carter, Howie Dorough and AJ McLean -- have been cleared by doctors ... but have been "prescribed Tamiflu" just in case.
That must have been another pale, black haired, goth rocker blowing nasty swine flu snot rockets while singing a Marilyn Manson song at a Marilyn Manson concert -- because the rocker says it wasn't him.
We got a hopefully flu-less Marilyn out in L.A. last night, where his sarcasm was beyond infectious.
The night before announcing he was infected with the dreaded pig virus, Marilyn Manson was busy blowing loads of snot on stage at a concert in Ottawa.
In the video -- shot on Sunday in Canada -- Manson is performing "Beautiful People" when he suddenly, disgustingly decides to empty flu goo from both nostrils ... while standing only a few feet away from the fans in the front row.
Let's hope Swine Flu is snot as contagious as everyone thinks it is.
It's the newest craze sweeping through Hollywood -- celebrities with Swine Flu!!!! And now two new members are on the infectious bandwagon! CNN's chief medical expert Dr. Sanjay Gupta just got over hisbout with the Swine Flu -- and Marilyn Manson just announced that he's got S.F. right now!
"Harry Potter's" Rupert Grint had it ... "The Early Show's" Harry Smith thinks he has it ... and Lisa Rinna claims her entire family got down with the sickness. It's a full blown trend!
According to Manson, he didn't contract it by "f**king a pig" -- we're guessing Gupta didn't either.
Apparently, genetically superior supermodels like Cindy Crawford are immune to the threat of global pandemics.
While security donned swine flu masks, the 43-year-old stunner pranced through a Buenos Aires airport unafraid to breathe it all in without protection.
Cindy's so gorgeous even deadly infectious viruses are too intimidated to come up to her.
Rihanna & Jay-Z have a similar sense of humor -- because last night in NY we asked RiRi the same question Jigga cracked up at a few nights back: Is Chris Brown responsible for the Swine Flu pandemic?
We're 99.8% sure it's her you hear chuckling after.
Now that the swine flu epidemic has infected a staggering 4 people out of France's 60 million residents, Eminem was taking no chances of contracting the devastating illness while tooling around Paris yesterday.
Pigs aren't the only thing with a bad rap these days.
