But wait, I thought the airlines told us that flying was perfectly safe! I am certain their research is the best and most objective in the field!https://twitter.com/washingtonpost/status/1320827686240030721 …

It's certainly possible. But given the different ways the virus can spread, close proximity - as in an airplane - is probably something that should be avoided if possible. The airline industry has a strong interest in reinforcing safety, but I don't think we should be so certain.

I'm actually surprised how few confirmed breakouts there are, and I think there is a real reason--airlines filter air very aggressively.

The other thing is that the onward infections are not entirely due to flying on a plane. Failures of post-flight mitigation are part of the problem.

Also: this summer— not all airlines were using masks.
