Many of us here on this website have made aviation their live's work. We are intensely interested to know how this pilot might have contracted the new coronavirus: Was this community spread, had there been a recent ID 90 visit to a virus hot spot, was the pilot flying international routes or domestic, was there a close family member who infected the pilot AND will the crew who flew in close proximity with this pilot be stood down for 2 weeks quarantine?
A few of us are out there in far flung parts of the world where we have absolutely no protection as might be expected when flying with one of the larger EU/USA airlines. If this could happen at AA then what befalls us in our 3rd world assignments? If we come down with the coronavirus will we be flown home to our home country for treatment? Will be denied entry home because we are know carriers of the virus?
