The story isn't very well written (or proofread):

no evidence even people sitting next to an infected person in an hours long plane journey won’t get it.

Shouldn't that be "will get it"? As in "no evidence [...]people [...] will get it"?

Or do they really mean people will get it?

So confused...

Many a truth is revealed by a slip of the tongue...

That statement by the author is not supported by CDC guidance. The CDC has written that sitting one row away from someone with the COVID-19 virus moves you from low to moderate risk.

The next highest risk category is that of medical personnel working with infected patients in a hospital, and requires full PPE.
