Flight Attendants Encouraged to Utilize Disposable Diapers as Additional Protection Against COVID-19
In the ongoing battle against the COVID-19 pandemic, the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) has introduced new safety measures for flight attendants. The new guidelines, which have been reported by Almaty.tv, citing Lenta.ru, and further covered by CNN, aim to provide an extra layer of protection for cabin crew members.
The new measures were developed following a study that found the coronavirus can spread in aircraft even from asymptomatic carriers. The study's findings led to the implementation of these additional safety measures in China's aviation industry.
According to the new guidelines, the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is mandatory for cabin crew. This includes masks, goggles, and gloves. Additionally, flight attendants have been advised to wear disposable underwear and diapers at work to minimize the risk of COVID-19 infection.
The document also suggests that crew members should avoid using restrooms to further reduce the risk of infection. These extensive precautions highlight the efforts being made in China to combat the spread of COVID-19 in the aviation sector.
It is important to note that the recommendation for diaper use is in addition to the previously mentioned guidelines. The use of PPE for cabin crew is a common practice in China, as well as the use of disposable underwear. However, the practice of flight attendants wearing diapers during work is not a common practice in other countries' aviation industries.
While the new guidelines have been met with some controversy, the CAAC maintains that they are necessary to ensure the safety of flight attendants and passengers alike. The new safety measures are part of the ongoing efforts to ensure safety in China's aviation industry during the COVID-19 pandemic.
As always, it is crucial to stay informed and follow the latest advice from health authorities to protect yourself and others during this global health crisis.
