  • An acquaintance died from breast cancer this month. Apparently she delayed (or was delayed) in seeing a doctor during the initial 10 day (errr, 10 month) lockdown to flatten the curve…and this delay (the actual full lockdown) likely allowed it to metastasize past being removable.

    Meanwhile, the majority of affected people dealt with a nasty, old-fashioned flu incidence.

        Then there's the difference between wearing masks and wearing them properly which would (according to Science(TM)) require regular replacement (or at least regular cleaning). I see very little of either out there. Most masks I see at airports look pretty tattered (they're couple years old) and quite a few even from a distance look pretty filthy. So, I have to partly agree with Schwartz. It's not that mask-wearing itself is theater, it's the way it's done that's theater.
        Hm. Tonight I'm here because, even after the pestilence, there you might find one or two unruly pax. And I used the word "cleaning" together with the jp forum search window.
        The result is you, ATLcrew. Now, your topic obviously was "cleaning face masks", but as long as the jp forum KI is not more intelligent than you n me, I'll use this very popular forum entry, instead of opening one by myself.

        Unruly pax, that's a phenomenon which you could also imagine in a bus, in a tram or in a metro. At this moment I'm not quite informed about how many US-$ you can pay after you've left an almost full 0,5 liter cup of brown lemonade - let's say Sinalco - spilled on the cabin floor of a LH-B744.

        Anyone?

        PS: My suggestion: 150 US-$ in cash to the Flight Captain in the middle of the economy cabin,
        if it happens before t/o (with or without delay), and 100 US-$ in cash if it happens on final, only minutes before parking breaks are set. And what if it happens en route? Well. On board a 747, you have clearly more than 1 or 2 hours after t/o. And the chief stewardess on board certainly will find a mop (dt.: Wischmopp) for you.. Before I really get angry due to those pigs.
