Default Fume Events

I've been a lurker on this site for over 10 years and hardly ever post. Left seat wide body with 20 plus years.


I hate to post a downer, but there doesn't seem to be much information or concern over the fume events (dirty socks smell) that most of us have experienced over the years.


Couple weeks ago I flew an airplane that had multiple fume events throughout the flight. We didn't go on oxygen because the intensity came and went. In the past I have 'blown off' any concern about these events but I came across the below pasted article recently and I'm concerned that we don't treat this seriously.


By the way, I filled out multiple reports on my recent experience, but got no feedback.


Thoughts?
