Experts note that the risk of developing a serious viral infection on a plane, through air pollution, is low.
This is due, according to the "euronews" website, due to the nature of the ventilation system in modern aircraft. The air in it is a mixture of fresh air and recycled air.
Recycled air passes through filters of the same type used in operating theaters, ensuring that it is free of viruses and other particles by 99.97%. So the danger, if there is a danger, does not come from the air in the plane but rather from people close to the location of the passenger sitting on the plane.
