My bet is that American Airline does it first, and the other airlines quietly follow.
Expect the press to freak out over it. Then move onto the next.....squirrel!

I'm actually more impressed you're trying to liken this to a common cold, people who don't understand math trying to compare it to the flu is bad enough.

At the rate the hysteria is spreading through the zeitgeist, in the next couple of weeks you'll have people demanding to be "put on the next flight" when they see a single person blowing their nose in the jetbridge. Infinite waivers for sniffly noses will make the airline unflyable. Guess we'll see.
You know, it strikes me that Delta could start offering hand wipes and gel hand washing along with the free snacks. It's something, at least.

This is the fake news sensation of the month. Next month it will be something else. Spent a LOT of time in asia and the hygiene and public cleanliness is nothing like the rest of the world. Soon everyone will realise people are NOT dieing like in asia, media will move on to the next sensation of the month.
