JetBlue passenger who flew while infected with coronavirus has been banned for life

IMO this is the way every airline should handle people like this passenger.

If you know that you are infected, DON"T GET ON THE PLANE.

If you've been tested because you had symptoms, but do not yet have test results, DON"T GET ON THE PLANE.

If you have corona virus symptoms, but haven't been tested, get tested and DON'T GET ON THE PLANE until tests results come back and confirm that you don't have the illness.

It's just common sense, folks.

It's the stories like this that give me the most concern about where this could lead.

Personally, banning for life is a little bit harsh. But I do agree that this person should not have gone on an airplane -knowing- that he recently took a coronavirus test with pending results. Pretty sure the CDC / everyone says that if you think you might have the virus you should not even attempt to get on a plane.
