Coronavirus has people wondering if they should be on a plane while this thing is going around. The short answer: Nah, if you're gonna get it, you're gonna get it, and being on a plane isn't any different from any other place with crowds. You can catch it as easily in a movie theater or shopping mall or waiting in the express line at Kroger. All that matters is if the people sitting close to you are sick, meaning the people next to you, the one in front of you, the one behind you. But aisle's worse than window because of the people passing you by. And if the plane's full -- assume it will be -- you can't move if the people around you are coughing up their lungs. Take solace in the research that shows you won't likely catch anything, because of the filtered recirculated air. There's more, but short answer again, try not to worry about it. (Washington Post)
