Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Airborne transmission of respiratory viruses in healthcare settings is often underestimated because conventional epidemiologic methods provide limited insight into aerosol dynamics and ventilation performance. Integrating aerosol simulations with viral genomic data may support the plausibility of airborne transmission pathways and help explain differences in outbreak magnitude over time. METHODS: We...
