> To whomever downvoted this I haven't downvoted, but I'm having problems with the last sentence > we need an honest study, and subsequent class lawsuit. Honest stud exist for many years [0] and it's common knowledge in every tourist guide [1]. Class lawsuit is a very American thing, let's sue everyone regardless of proof or if the condition can be avoided by the persons themselves. Even the link between flight and DVT is not 100% clear [2], although there seems to be a good mechanism explaining it: > not all experts agree that air travel is a direct cause of thrombosis due to a lack of large-scale population studies. Such studies are difficult to evaluate, in that the extended period between flight time and presentation of DVT or PE symptoms induces variability. The conclusion of this [3] research is somewhat disturbing: > Moreover, given the low incidence of DVT in the general population we may never know if air travel increases the risk of DVT because studies with the required sample size to detect a significantly increased risk are unlikely to be sponsored.
