Microbes in Airplanes
Microorganisms that affect humans are all found in indoor environments. Since airplanes are such small places crammed with people bacteria is growing everywhere in the airplane cabins. The bacteria is not only transferred by direct contact but also airborne and droplets of human fluids. A single sneeze can travel at 100 mph and a 5 foot radius. The bacteria of a sneeze with travel up to 105 feet. In a plane there is not much room for a sneeze to spread so it is confined to a small space where it can reach more people as once. Microbes arising from environmental sources include bacteria, fungi and other organisms such as protozoa. It has been proven that the air can be sterilized ultraviolet germicidal irradiation.
This article did not really give reason or detail behind its information. I choose this article so that I could dissect it and understand what makes a article good and bad. So here it goes. The article had good information about the subject but it was organized very oddly. I felt like it jumped around from random stuff. What I mean by this is that there would be a topic and a little bit more into the article there was another piece of information about the topic. I hope to learn from this article how I can fix my writing skills and blog skills also.
This article really talks about how we can sterilize the air and to kill the germs they need to be cleaned thoroughly and quickly. This is interesting to me because from my understanding airplanes are not cleaned thoroughly at each stop so when they do isn't it just that much harder to kill all of the germs that have been building up? The article also talks a lot how ultraviolet germicidal irradiation and how it truly kills all of the bacteria living on all of the surfaces of the airplane. I feel like this should be used more in places that are full of bacteria that are hard to get rid of. this would prevent a lot of illnesses everywhere for everyone.
