Fast walking in narrow corridors can increase COVID-19 transmission risk
E-Mail IMAGE: The cough-generated droplets from a walking individual disperse differently in a narrow corridor and an open space. In an open space, the droplets are dispersed in a large range attached... view more Credit: Xiaolei Yang WASHINGTON, December 15, 2020 -- Computational simulations have been used to accurately predict airflow and droplet dispersal patterns in situations where COVID-19 might be spread. In the journal Physics of Fluids, by AIP Publishing, results show the importance of the shape of the space in modeling how virus-laden droplets move through the air. The...
