- notacoward 8y agoTrue, and I'm sure you'll say you do that, but the fact is that most people are more selective. It's useful to know when it's particularly critical.

Having recently been through a real live measles-containment exercise (don't ask) I've gained a much greater appreciation of what epidemiologists and other public-health professionals do. People just don't realize how they're being protected every day. I hope some of your colleagues are talking to TSA and airport management about these findings.
