Default Temperature Checks/Screening Prior to Flying

Does anyone know if or when the discussion of possible testing in terms of body temperature checks or any type of prescreening will OR could take place to ensure safer domestic air travel for the flying public? I know all airlines are taking enhanced safety precautions...but is it enough? Or are we just rapidly spreading Covid-19 throughout the country with unsystematic passengers and flight crews? Thoughts? Stay safe out there everyone!

I’m shocked it’s not happening. You can’t even enter an airport in Asia without getting a temperature check, and by the time you’ve boarded you will have had your temp taken 3-4x at least.

At some point the US needs to get their act together with screening and testing. It’s just inexcusable.
