Airborne influenza virus shedding by patients in health care units: Removal mechanisms affecting virus transmission

Airborne influenza virus shedding by patients in health care units: Removal mechanisms affecting virus transmission

In this study, we characterize the distribution of airborne viruses (influenza A/B) in hospital rooms of patients with confirmed infections. Concurrently, we monitored fine particulate matter (PM2.5 & PM10) and several physical parameters including the room air exchange rate, temperature, and relative humidity to identify corresponding correlations with virus transport …
