Not quite the only one. Articles such as these remind me that growing up as a "free range kid" helped develop a robust immune system and I am therefore not troubled with the concerns of the cloistered.

The article ignores the fact that tea and coffee are both served hot on airlines and the water is heated to or near the boiling point, temperatures beyond which most pathogens do not survive.
