The problem with AC/ventilation systems spreading viruses is the downstream effect. The AC on buses is pumped down from above the passenger's heads. Unless there's an infected passenger hanging upside down like a bat above you, I would imagine the bus's AC system is of negligible risk as a vector.

Now, about those windows that Stephen Blais screwed shut...
