Viable SARS-CoV-2 in the air of a hospital room with COVID-19 patients

2020-08-04

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> <h4>Background</h4> There currently is substantial controversy about the role played by SARS-CoV-2 in aerosols in disease transmission, due in part to detections of viral RNA but failures to isolate viable virus from clinically generated aerosols. <h4>Methods</h4> Air samples were collected in the room of two COVID-19 patients, one of whom had an active respiratory infection with a nasopharyngeal...
