I cannot see AS or any other airline instituting such a policy. No telling that your antibodies keep you from getting it again, if and/or how long those antibodies may be effective, and so on. And how is a flight crew supposed to enforce this? Via the "antibody lanyard and photo ID" hanging around your neck? Manifests with photos?

I could envision policies such as proof of vaccination for travel, which is historically not uncommon for international travel.

My glasses fog up, too. Annoying. I don't wear it when I drive. I won't be driving the plane.
