What are the chances of catching COVID on a flight?

Quote

 

Arnold Barnett, a professor of management science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), says the odds are about 1 in 4,300 on a two-hour flight filled to capacity, and drop to 1 in 7,700 when a flight keeps all middle seats vacant.

Barnett published his findings in a not-yet-peer-reviewed article in which he used his background in mathematics and statistics to estimate the risks involved in stepping on an airplane in the coming months.

Take away from article:

“Wearing a mask is a simple and easy way to reduce the spread of COVID-19,” senior author Eric Westman says in a university statement. “About half of infections are from people who don’t show symptoms, and often don’t know they’re infected. They can unknowingly spread the virus when the cough, sneeze and just talk.”

Westman adds that 99 percent of infectious droplets can be stopped before reaching another person if everyone wears a functioning face mask.

“In the absence of a vaccine or antiviral medicine, it’s the one proven way to protect others as well as yourself,” he says.

Dan Forest is going all around NC campaigning. Not a mask in sight. He was in my hometown today. The local state senator was posting the pics. I'd say it would be hilarious if he got the rona except for the high likelihood that he would be a super spreader.

Sue Myrick’s son. fug both of them sideways.

It was a Duke study though. Why would they close from a study. Are you saying it is wrong, or have a rebuttal? 

Yes, it is wrong. Perhaps the writer misquoted them, but there is zero ways a fabric over your face is worse than no fabric. My issue is with that one sentence. Thus why I quoted it.

      Panthers Prospect Visits/Meetings

      By Basbear · Posted

      I do not want nor have the energy to start a sanders vs BY topic..... Heres where Im at, what else is Titans Levi's or colts Arich going give in a trade...... Im no sanders fan, but it wouldn't bug me if caralas/Brandt/tepper/who____ wanted to go another route.....yes its been a QB whirlwind since ...to long.... still Im not sold on the skill and talent of one BY.   I think this is first year in many in which Carolina with have the same HC, QB, and GM. Its been a mess...

      Ryan Fowler: Panthers hosting Texas A&M Shemar Stewart

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      No one should be the least bit surprised by this organization doing powerfully stupid stuff. You don't accidentally achieve the worst record in the NFL since 2018, it takes consistently awful decisions to pull that off. And then the cherry on top of the dog poo sundae is that every year when we're closing in on a top 5 pick, here comes a couple of meaningless moral victories to fug that up. I'd be curious what percentage of our wins in the Tepper era have come when we're mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.

      NFL execs on the Panthers offseason

      I think remember doing mock Sims for Carolina as many others, I don't think any of picked RBs in any rounds.... I honestly had the same "my team let me down" feels with the BY pick........just WHY all the holes and one of the spots were they have depth AND the RB market is at the lowest point in NFL history..... Just a    Per normal the huddle was for all for Zach Frazier, not me I wanted Marshawn Kneeland. Plus I wanted to REMAIN AT whatever LA pick and NOT TRADE UP FOR A ACL injuried RB. My friend was right, Dan did draft like he was still playing in his era..... ugh, Brandt and Dan cannot have that same problem this year......its beginning year 2 of a full 3 year rebuild..... for fugs sake, please find some talent and depth in later rounds....
