Why are people still flying ? Stop flying !

in OCD4 years ago (edited)

We will not stop the spread of Coronavirus until people stop flying.

Why ?

The air on an airplane is as dry as the Sahara Desert.

It is the perfect environment to transmit this disease. A few seconds is all it takes. Is your Vacation more important than spreading a virus that could kill hundreds of older people in your town ? In your family ? Your own parents ? .

Most modern aircraft recycle about 50 percent of cabin air, with the remaining 50 percent being fresh, outside air. ... Even though cabin air is exchanged through the system about 20 to 30 times per hour, there remains a risk of airborne disease transmission.

More Importantly ... The air is Too Dry !

As a result people will find themselves coughing and sneezing more after a flight even if the air is cleaned. The culprit is dryness because the typical aircraft cabin is exceptionally dry, probably drier than the air in the desert.

This is because, at the altitude most aircraft fly, the moisture content is extremely low. With dried out sinuses and nasal passages, it's actually easier to catch something passed along from another passenger.

Totally agree. If it's not necessary don't fly or cruise.
We live on a small Island and up until yesterday we were virus free.
2 people flew in from spain to stay at a hotel them tested positive. They must have known before they flew. How selfish are people. Now it will spread island wide.

People are transmitting this virus because they are too stupid to stop flying.

Humans are stupid.

People are too Selfish to give up one vacation. Idiots.

I would love to reschedule my May 5 flight to Tokyo. But the fuckers at Delta won't let me do it without paying a ridiculous rescheduling fee. And then jacking up the rate on the other flight.

And I'm supposed to be playing tour guide for 7 other people, If this trip falls apart, I'm fucked...

The fact is that more people will die from economy crash than from actual virus
