Hmm, 8 days of diarrhea and vomiting cannot possibly be food poisoning, can it? 🤔

@ai6yr why'd he get on a plane with a stomach bug?
@MsMerope Because he really wanted to spread it to everyone else on the plane?
@ai6yr @MsMerope I don't know, but one thing I can absolutely say is if I'm that sick I sure as heck wouldn't want to be riding in something that lifts up, shakes around a lot, then falls down again.

@nazokiyoubinbou @ai6yr
how do you even get to the bathroom in a hurry on an airplane?

and omg - the poor souls sitting next to him 😱

@ai6yr that many days with those symptoms? he could be heading toward hypovolemic shock.

🤔

@MsMerope I was going to say, how do are you still hydrated, and how do you stay hydrated, and how are you not just spending your entire plane trip infecting the nearest lavatory? All of this is a bad, bad, bad idea (unless you are writing a virus horror movie scene).

Should we bring back scanning people for fevers before they go in closed spaces?

@alienghic @shwnwllms @MsMerope Sigh, seems like it would have been wise in this case.
@alienghic @shwnwllms @ai6yr @MsMerope There is literally no reason it should have ended. Since we did jack squat to stop the pandemic and it's still raging, uh, yeah.
@ai6yr @MsMerope although not necessarily the right protection against vomiting and diarrhea, this is why I continue to mask on planes and in public spaces. I have absolutely no faith or trust in other people not to knowingly infect me with their illnesses. People are gross.
