- According to Emily Landon, medical director of antimicrobial stewardship and infection control at the University of Chicago Medicine, the hospital’s guidelines for influenza define exposure as being within six feet of an infected person for 10 minutes or longer.
- on a plane:
- The World Health Organization defines contact with an infected person as being seated within two rows of one another. Because more people move around more on longer flights, the longer the flight, the more susceptible you are to being in contact with an infected person. The 'Fly Healthy Research Team' says that the window seats have least opportunity to come into contact with an infected person.
- Landon suggests following the CDC guidelines for infections diseases when you are on an airplane:
- wash your hands with regular soap or using an alcohol-based hand sanitizer after touching any surface. very important since there is evidence that coronaviruses last 3 to 12 hours on surfaces.
