Aerosol measurement identifies SARS-CoV 2 PCR positive adults compared with healthy controls

2022-01-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> SARS-CoV-2 is spread primarily through droplets and aerosols. Exhaled aerosols are generated in the lung periphery by ‘reopening of collapsed airways’. Aerosol measuring may detect highly contagious individuals (“super spreaders or super-emitters”) and discriminate between SARS-CoV-2 infected and non-infected individuals. This is the first study comparing exhaled aerosols in SARS-CoV-2 infected...
