Thanks for the clarifications and data.

The people who clean the planes that come in to JFK are striking, and I don't blame them. If my job were to clean up barf, right now I'd be terrified.

I think if we eliminate the close contact with the bodies of fluid, the huge bulk of tranmission would stop, and we could deal with the few that could maybe still get it from once-wet surfaces. That were wet very recently. And had a big viral load in them. The bodies of infected fluid, I meant. A few cases here and there would be dealable-with.

And if everybody stopped repatriating the ill, we'd stop sending more of these few cases here or there.
