Analysis of hospital air microbiomes uncovers potential avenues for transmission of diverse pathogens linked to hospital-acquired infections

2026-03-13

Abstract excerpt

Fomite-mediated and airborne transmission pathways play a significant role in the dissemination of healthcare associated pathogens, contributing to the burden of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs). Effective infection prevention and control therefore require robust surveillance approaches capable of capturing the complexity of air and surface microbial communities present in healthcare settings. However, to date...
