Trapped at 37000ft With Germs

Last month, when a federal judge struck down the CDC’s mask mandate, some flight attendants announced to their passengers that masks had become optional. And in response, many removed their masks and cheered.

What a horror that must’ve been to any immunocompromised people who might’ve been on board these flights. Imagine boarding the airplane with the expectation that everyone’s breath-born germs would be kept to themselves. Then, suddenly, you’re exposed to an onslaught of germs spewed out from revelers. This announcement was irresponsible.

Meanwhile the COVID-19 positivity rate keeps rising.
