answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/06/2021 answer text <p>Vaccination greatly reduces transmission and two doses provide a very high degree of protection against serious illness and death. Air conditioning systems on modern aircraft filter cabin air every few minutes through High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters. These filters are very effective at capturing airborne microbes in the filtered air and, when coupled with the drawn in fresh air, can help to mitigate the longer-range risk of transmission.</p> answering member constituency Witney answering member printed Robert Courts question first answered 28/06/2021 14:20:41 answering member 4589 label Biography information for Robert Courts
