Flying with the flu? Some may be tempted
In this article, the issue of people traveling for the holiday season when they are well aware that they are sick. The H1N1 flu virus is very contagous and for some reason people arent taking this situation very seriously. Some still traveling when they know their sick and not taking proper safety precautions. People dont seem to be worried when they are in a tiny, cramped airplane cabin that these germs are going to spread and very well like wild fire.
I personally think travelers need to be safe and very aware of their surroundings espically during the busy holiday season. Some people need to travel and airplanes are the only method for them. If this is the case, pack your bags properly with a mask and carry antibacterial hand sanitizer. Comments?

I agree that people should not travel when they are contagiious or if they have to they should take all safety precautions to make sure they do not spread whatever they have.
Airplanes are for those who are perfectly fine and are not experiencing and sickness. Those who are sick with anything should stay off until they have overcome whatever it is. For one person to threaten the lives of others is immoral because they have full capability not to do so. It should actually be a law that those who have H1N1 virus are banned from flying on public aircraft. This how the disease gets spread.
