COVID-19 risk on airlines?

Speak Out

Are people aware that many airlines do not require COVID-19 testing? Any passenger on the plane could be positive.

An acquaintance was telling me how he flew from Texas to northern Michigan and all he was asked was, “Do you have any symptoms?”

Upon arrival, for family’s sake, he tested locally and was positive. He self-quarantined for 14 days and was still positive but was allowed to board the plane to return to Texas, advising to wear a mask. He changed planes three times.

How many other passengers were positive or infected or both?

Is this how we are containing the virus?

Unbelievable.
