There are several lines of evidence that travel by train is associated with a significantly lower risk of infection compared with the risk of infection in the home environment. Due to a lack of observational data, one will need to model the risk of infection for long-distance travel by bus and use of local public transport based on air exchange in the passenger compartment, travel duration, distance from other passengers, and ultimately passenger density.
