Buying in the time of Corona has special rules
Studies have not stopped on the emerging corona virus, which terrorized the world, and it has become a real mystery faced by scientists that prevents them from finding a way to stop it.
A study conducted by the American University of Harvard revealed surprising results related to the most dangerous way in which the emerging corona virus is transmitted, and the study focused specifically on travel and shopping.
The Harvard University study, the results of which were published two days ago, used computer models to check airflow in aircraft cabins and found that specialized in-flight ventilation systems filter 99 percent of transmitted viruses. through the air.
Although the study was funded by aviation companies and aircraft manufacturers, Harvard researchers insist this did not affect their findings, the US network “CNN” reported on Thursday.
The researchers emphasized that despite the recirculation of air within the aircraft cabin, it passes through high-quality filters, noting that the Corona virus is unlikely to be transmitted from one passenger to another due to the “trend downward “air flow.
The study says that ventilation inside the plane in this way effectively combats the risks of transmission of the virus from one passenger to another, especially with the inevitable proximity of passengers during flights.
Harvard researchers confirm that the ventilation system is not the only one that limits the spread of infection, pointing out in this regard the important role of protective masks in maintaining the health of travelers, as well as in disinfection of the cabins and passenger self-examination.
The study said that “the multi-stage approach to safety measures followed by airlines reduces the risk of transmission of the Corona virus on board aircraft to a much lesser degree than other routine activities, such as shopping or eating out. “.
The results of the study conducted by Harvard University are in line with a recent study conducted by the United States Department of Defense, which found few risks of transmission of the virus in passenger aircraft thanks to the masks and effective ventilation.
In their study, the researchers advised travelers to reduce the time to remove masks while eating or drinking while flying.
