the measures began in that country by the pandemic of covid-19, reported Saturday the Transportation Security Administration (TSA, in English).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Twitter, agency spokeswoman Lisa Farbstein announced that 1,357,111 people passed through security checks at U.S. airports on Friday, the highest number since March 15 last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>See also:

more than any other country in the world in absolute terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The airline industry has been one of the hardest hit by the pandemic, although major U.S. airlines have received more than
