What are the latest scientific explanations for why I always seem to get sick after flying?
I've noticed that every time I take a flight, I end up getting sick within a day or two after landing. At first, I thought it was just a coincidence, but it's happened to me so many times now that I'm starting to think there must be a scientific explanation for it. I've tried to take precautions like washing my hands frequently and avoiding close contact with other passengers, but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
I've heard that the low air pressure and dry air on planes can weaken the immune system, making us more susceptible to illness. But I'm not sure if that's really the cause, or if there are other factors at play. I've also wondered if it has something to do with the fact that I'm often exposed to new environments and germs when I travel.
I'd love to hear from anyone who has experienced similar issues or has some insight into the science behind it. Can airborne pathogens really survive for long periods of time on surfaces and in the air, and are there any specific steps I can take to protect myself? Are there any recent studies or research that shed more light on this topic?
