    You can still wear n95 masks to protect yourself if you are too worried…

    Bruh I wish I thought of wearing a mask on planes before Covid. You know how lame it is going on vacation only to be sick for the first 3-5 days? Well usually it’ll hit one or two days later so your vacation is just totally shot.

      Not everyone has the same immune system responses, gets the same amount of sleep..you get the idea. Even with good hygiene I’d get sick on planes often, there’s always a kid who sits two seats next do you that coughs out in the open, or the dude that fails to sneeze into his elbow. It’s a multi hour breeding ground for airborne germs regardless of where your hands are.

      It’s great you don’t have to wear a mask, just don’t give me crap when I choose to wear mine.

    I didn’t like wearing masks, but not getting sick / malaise on long haul flights was an awesome bonus. So my sentiment to this outcome is mixed.

      I’m young and healthy. I regularly take 14 hour long haul flight to see family. It was a 50/50 that one of the many sick coughing people on the plane would give me a sore throat or minor headache for a day or two, not disastrous, but annoying. Since masking up it’s been great not to deal with that.

      I don’t want to wear masks, I want sick people to wear them.

  • I’m glad. Now I can stop acting like I’m eating trail mix the entire time. I’ve read a number of peer reviewed studies on masks. They’re basically useless (well the ones you’re wearing)
