The Biocloud Analyzer - Airline Industry Good Evening All,
Here's hoping that in the next 5 weeks, news is out that the Biocloud analyzer can do what is expected of it. Looking at the following news, it certainly can be put to good use, both domestically & internationally re: airline industry.. Sure would look good on true Longs of KNR.
Another group of international flights land in Canada with COVID-19 patients
Published Monday, August 17, 2020 9:27AM EDTLast Updated Monday, August 17, 2020 11:22AM EDT ORONTO -- Another group of international flights have arrived in Canada with passengers who have now tested positive for COVID-19.
According to the federal government, more than 35 fights have landed in Canada between Aug. 1 and Aug. 13 that had passengers who tested positive for COVID-19 after arriving in the country.
At least 24 of the flights arrived in Toronto, twelve landed in Montreal, three in Vancouver and two in Calgary.
Despite some airlines and travel companies promoting international travel again, the federal government is still advising Canadians against leaving the country for non-essential purposes.
For those who do, it is mandatory to self-isolate for 14 days, regardless of whether or not they are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19.
Passengers are not notified directly by federal public health authorities to get tested, though the government acknowledges those onboard affected flights "may have been exposed to COVID-19."
Speaking to CTVNews.ca last month, Air Canada spokesperson Peter Fitzpatrick said that anyone concerned they may have been exposed to the disease should contact their doctor.
"However, it is important to understand the incidence of individuals contracting a communicable disease inflight is very low. As evidence, consider what are called 'cluster outbreaks,' where a group of people contract a disease at the same time and location. These are rarely if ever tied to modes of travel, whereas you often see reports of outbreaks arising from funerals, bars or other gatherings," Fitzpatrick said.
An Air Canada fact sheet says, "the reasons for the apparently low rate of in-flight transmission are not fully determined but are thought to include a combination of the lack of face-to-face contact, and the physical barriers provided by seat backs, along with the characteristics of cabin air flow."
Pre-flight screening, temperature monitoring and mandatory face coverings are "also seen to be effective."
Best wishes to All, good health,

P.S. Depending on the test results plus perhaps further modifications where needed, the Biocloud may address other forms of transportation, such as, ships ( civilian eg. cruise liners, cargo/government/military), subways, buses. Plus mines, work camps, schools, hospitals, offices etc. etc. Blue Sky potential upon good results. Topseeker
