Will recirculated air on a plane make me sick?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Recirculated air : Recirculated air implies it has gone through a filter, which would trap most particles. In an airplane, most air would be mixed with the recirculated air.. I would recommend wearing a mask for increased protection.
