36、er Sheet 2.How to Duck Cabin Fevers And Other Aches on a Plane?A On the first leg of this seasons holiday travel tour, I had the delightful experience of watching my 20-month-old touch nearly every surface on our airplane, from numerous armrests and people we passed in the aisle to our fingerprint-s
37、tained window. As a somewhat uncontrollable germaphobe (洁癖), it took everything I had not to dip my son in hand sanitizer (消毒剂) and then physically restrain him. But I was flying alone with two children and he was happy eating those snacks off the floor, and so, for the sake of my fellow passengers,
38、 I let him handle pretty much anything he wanted. Hence, I wasnt surprised when his nose started running shortly after we arrived at our destination, followed by the inevitable cough, which his older brother also picked up. Our “vacation“ ended at a CVS Minute Clinic, with ear infectious for both ki
39、ds.B Coming down with a cold, cough or other illness after air travel is a common refrain, even from adults who dont try to lick the seatback tray table. But is the plane really to blame? Not particularly, says aviation medicine specialist Mark Gendreau, vice chair of emergency medicine at the Lahey
40、 Clinic in Burlington, Mass. “You do have a higher risk of contracting a viral infection while traveling, but you have to remember that its really the door-to-door experience thats exposing you to germs: the crowds on the subway to the airport, the escalator, the security line, getting on and off th
41、e aircraft,“ he explains. “Its almost impossible to say where, exactly, you get sick.“C In fact, experts point out that the environment of a plane is probably less risky, health-wise, than many other crowded, confined spaces. Given airliners improved ventilation systems, germs arent being constantly
42、 circulated through the plane, stresses Gendreau. Instead, he says, you are most likely to pick up a bug from close contact with a sick person or by touching a surface thats been coughed or sneezed on or otherwise contaminated, such as an armrest or an overhead bin lock.D Studies have shown that the
43、 highest risk of germ transmission on a plane, by far, comes from those around you, particularly those seated within two rows, says Michael Zimring, director of the Center for Healthy Travel at the Mercy Medical Center in Baltimore. “The closer the proximity and the longer the time youre confined wi

45、irmed to have swine flu. Researchers found that the three additional travelers who appeared to have contracted the virus on the flight were all sitting within two rows of an infected person; that put the chance of transmission at 3.5 percent within two rows and roughly 1.9 percent for anyone in the
46、same section of the plane.F “Theres no doubt that planes are pretty germy,“ says Charles Gerba, a professor of microbiology at the University of Arizona who studies how diseases are transmitted in indoor environments. “There is no requirement or regulation for the cleaning and disinfection of airplanesits up to individual airlinesand it just doesnt get done regularly,“ he said. The dirtiest spot on board? By far, the restrooms,
