No one likes to be seated near a sick passenger — and that’s especially true during a pandemic.
While the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) currently puts the risk of contracting COVID-19 on planes at “low” due to the nature of “how air circulates and is filtered on airplanes,” that doesn’t mean travelers shouldn’t take every health precaution possible, and maintain social distancing from anyone exhibiting symptoms of respiratory illness.
Should you find yourself on a plane with a sick passenger, however, you should be aware that the federal government and the CDC have a protocol in place for the airline industry in the event of such instances.

Thought maybe a smile break would help.
And maybe a prayer or two.
Open a window for fresh air.
Maybe throw a round through the cockpit to get the pilot's attention?
put a paper bag over your head!
Guaranteed 100% effective. ;)
That would work but the side effects would be dramatic.
Make sure you have your seat belt on and oxygen mask in place before removing the window:)
Jump, you’re dead anyway (according to the pearl clutcher’s here anyway), and maybe if you are over a dense pine forest you will have your fall cusio ned and will survive a few weeks more.
But make no mistake, you ARE among the walking dead. I know it’s true because I heard it on the news.
Kill them and cook them at a temperature where the virus dies.
Serve only the best parts and throw the rest out of the airplane to land on some 6 year old kid’s lap, who will then need psychiatric care until he’s 111.
Throw them out the air lock.
Call a lawyer the moment you land so you can be first in line to sue the airline, the airport, the transportation authorities in the country of departure, and the flight crew for not immediately isolating the sick passenger in the lavatory. This will work best if you are actually sick, so find someone with the corona virus and get as close to him as possible; you will probably not have more than very minor symptoms but you will end up very rich.
Too late now you are screwed. BUT, it may help if you chew on a Clorox cake
“ BUT, it may help if you chew on a Clorox cake”
Crap, I’m all out of Clorox cakes. Will a urinal cake work instead?
No, you’re doing it wrong.
Put the plastic bag over the sick person’s head to contain the virus particles.
Eat the fish.
But how would you know how many bags to take?
Lock yourself inthe cleanest place on the plane- the bathroom!
Bring a boxed roll with a couple dozen. THey only have to be kitchen sized, 13 gallons, not the huge hefties. Unroll as needed. Ought to be able to bag and tag everyone within coughing distance.

You can use a Tide Pod in a pinch.
Don’t get on the plane. Take a car.
I was on a flight once where some guy blew his sick all over the back of the seat in front of him. This in turn triggered chain wretching amongst about half of the passengers. I felt great pity for who ever had to clean up that airborne vomitorium.
