China has covid. They just stopped talking about it. They are pouring salt on the wound by showing pictures of people with their lives back to normal with no masks and in big crowds. If you actually believe that China is covid free, you are a sheep. China just deleted covid from their headlines, knowing that it’s enemies wouldn’t. We are destroying ourselves while our biggest enemy is thriving. What part of this do you not get?

This has little to do with my question. You should put your message on a sandwich sign and wear it on a crowded street corner while shouting it at the top of your lungs.

We get it.... you want there to be no mitigation at all and to have the masses get to natural herd immunity so you don’t have to get a shot. It’s likely that a vaccine is rolled out this year and it is also likely our fastest way to get back to some semblance of normalcy.
We don’t yet know what societal pressures you will face with your beliefs and those are going to be yours to weed through. It’s fine by me if you don’t get a shot and that right should be yours.
As far as your China rant. We can all agree that they have been anything but transparent. In fact downright untrustworthy and secretive about Covid. Right now though Covid is taking it’s toll here and talking about China is less pressing and we need measures to get back to normal here. The vaccine is the best and fastest way.

Unless it’s posted on twitter and doesn’t agree with the “lefts” agenda.

Just keep it cool is all I ask. Nothing worse than being hot in a mask. Knowing that you may have to drice keep it cool from the get go anticipating the lack of airflow. If the FAs say it’s cold before boarding do not warm it up. This actually goes for most winter operations. Unless it’s literally below 50 inside the cabin when you arrive don’t mess the heat. Bodies on the plane is all the heat you need. And for the love of god in warmer climates please don’t walk away until the ground personnel Has connected the air conditioning and run the APU until then. Those of us trapped in row 30 thank you.

I know that flying has been found to be really safe with regards to virus transmission, but sitting on a ramp for 20 minutes in a stagnant sealed tube...maybe not?
Mods, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE add a face palm option to the archaic emoji menu on here.

​​​​​​The first amendment protects Twitters right to put those little fact checks on there. That is what freedom of speech, freedom of the press means. When your government lies to you the press has the right to say they are lying. When the government tells you the truth the press has the right to say they are lying. That's how freedom of speech works.

I'm gonna just guess that no, none of the carriers have modified their procedures.
