Infection Control and Ventilation

This cluster of papers focuses on the airborne transmission of respiratory viruses, particularly the stability of viruses in aerosols and on surfaces, the effectiveness of personal protective equipment, the role of ventilation in controlling transmission, and the implications for healthcare settings. The cluster also addresses the specific challenges posed by COVID-19 and SARS-CoV-2 in terms of aerosol and surface distribution, as well as the potential for superemission events.
