Ventilation solutions for healthcare patient rooms to control respiratory infections

Abstract

<p>Building ventilation significantly impacts healthy and safe indoor conditions preventing airborne virus spread between people. Therefore, ventilation strategy is a globally essential and health-promoting research topic. Previous studies showed the importance of sufficient ventilation for diluting the virus concentration and reducing the infection risk. The present study investigates the probability of coronavirus infection in the typical room calculated with the Wells Riley proposes recommendations for further research of indoor airflow effect on the virus transmission.</p>
