ANALYSIS: Want to cut your chance of catching COVID on a plane? Wear a mask and avoid business class

That's before we start talking about the virus itself. We know more recent variants have emerged , that arethan the original virus or the Delta variant. We don't know how transmissible future variants or sub-variants will be., but the measures airlines put in place help achieve that. You can also reduce your personal risk further in a number of ways., from the ceiling to the floor, to reduce the potential spread of contaminated air through the plane.

Twelve of 16 people who were infected on the plane sat within a few rows of this person; another was a flight attendant. This suggests limited spread of contaminated air through the rest of the plane.of viral particles, further reducing the risk of droplet or airborne transmission.Well-fitted masks or respirators can reduce your risk of contracting COVID on a flight.

I traveled business class and never saw passengers spit or spray blood at each other - because that’s the ONLY thing masks stop. Masks are useless against viruses.

Health First and Staying Safe. The Virus will always have no trouble getting around if we encourage it!

Stop listening to the abc.

C. 6500 deaths since 2020. C.4500 of them in the 3 months of 2022. This pandemic is NOT over

People ( including all children ) should NOT be allowed on ANY flight unless fully vaccinated. Only a 24 carat selfish arrogant idiot e.g. anti vaxxer, could disagree

Or maybe don’t fly?
