Coughing has been confirmed as a significant vector for transmitting respiratory diseases. It can be modelled physically as a turbulent jet to study the dispersion of expiratory droplets …
In this new guideline, natural ventilation is considered for the first time among the effective measures to control infections in health care. Such a recommendation from WHO …
Resuspension of particles indoors increases the risk of consequent exposure through inhalation and non-dietary ingestion. Studies have been conducted to characterize indoor …
