As do I, and I have probably been on around 60-70 flights since May. Thank God for thick diapers!

The Fark headline for that story reads:  

Apparently someone with a weird kink is with the Civil Aviation Administration of China and wants flight attendants to wear disposable diapers

The Washington Post is covering it, so it must be legit:

China’s flight attendants advised to wear diapers to avoid covid-19 risks - The Washington Post

From the article:

"China’s transportation officials are recommending flight attendants wear disposable diapers and avoid restrooms at all costs on flights serving countries with high rates of coronavirus cases, according to documents from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC).

The recommendation to use diapers and avoid in-flight bathrooms altogether applies on flights to and from countries with infection rates exceeding 500 cases per million people. The United States’ coronavirus case rate exceeded that limit as of Dec. 10, at more than 660 cases per million."
