Modeling the impact of indoor relative humidity on the infection risk of five respiratory airborne viruses

Amar Aganovic et al.

Summary: Using a modified Wells-Riley model, this study investigated the infection risk of different respiratory viruses under various relative humidity and ventilation conditions. The results showed that increasing indoor humidity could potentially increase the infection risk for rhinovirus and adenovirus, while it may benefit influenza virus. Increasing ventilation rate could decrease the infection risk, especially when the rate is increased from low to high levels.

Estimating the impact of indoor relative humidity on SARS-CoV-2 airborne transmission risk using a new modification of the Wells-Riley model

Amar Aganovic et al.

Summary: This study found that increasing ventilation rate is more effective in reducing the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection compared to adjusting indoor relative humidity. A change in humidity had minimal impact on infection risk at a ventilation rate of 0.5 ACH, while increasing the ventilation rate to 6 ACH had a much larger effect, decreasing infection risk by half compared to the impact of humidity.

Dismantling myths on the airborne transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2)

J. W. Tang et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant disruption globally, highlighting the importance of understanding the transmission mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2. Confusion over the meaning of 'airborne' in discussions of transmission stems from past evidence and mythological beliefs, but there is evidence indicating that SARS-CoV-2 can be transmitted through various sizes of airborne particles.

Modelling uncertainty in the relative risk of exposure to the SARS-CoV-2 virus by airborne aerosol transmission in well mixed indoor air

Benjamin Jones et al.

Summary: The study introduces a mathematical model and statistical framework to estimate uncertainty in the number of SARS-CoV-2 genome copies in the respiratory tract of a susceptible person over time. A Relative Exposure Index (REI) is established to compare indoor spaces based on factors such as space volume, viral emission rate, exposure time, respiratory activity, and room ventilation. The study highlights the importance of ventilation in minimizing aerosol exposure risk and provides insights into different scenarios with varying levels of REI.

Probable airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in a poorly ventilated restaurant

Yuguo Li et al.

Summary: By analyzing a COVID-19 outbreak in a restaurant in Guangzhou, China, the study assessed the possibility of airborne transmission of the virus and characterized the associated environmental conditions. The findings suggest that airborne transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is possible in crowded spaces with a ventilation rate of 1 L/s per person.

psychrometric model to assess the biological decay of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in aerosols

Clive B. Beggs et al.

Summary: There is increasing evidence that variations in air temperature and humidity have an impact on the transmission of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. The survival of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in aerosols is influenced by environmental factors, with significant differences in survivability outdoors compared to indoors.

Dilution-based evaluation of airborne infection risk-Thorough expansion of Wells-Riley model

Sheng Zhang et al.

Summary: The study introduces a dilution-based evaluation method for airborne infection risk, which is proven to be a comprehensive extension of the Wells-Riley model for evaluating airborne infection risk with spatial and temporal resolutions, compared to the well-recognized models. Experiments in a mock hospital ward demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in assessing airborne infection risk both spatially and temporally.

Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment for Airborne Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 via Breathing, Speaking, Singing, Coughing, and Sneezing

Jack Schijven et al.

Summary: This study assessed the risk of illness due to airborne SARS-CoV-2 particles from breathing, speaking, singing, coughing, and sneezing in indoor environments. The results showed that sneezing had the highest volume of expelled aerosols, while singing became the second highest risk scenario after 2 hours of exposure.

Yong Guo et al.

Summary: This article presents a new approach to obtain the spatial distribution for the probability of infection by combining the SFIF method with the Wells-Riley model. This method can help control infection risk and optimize the use of space and equipment, contributing positively to the fight against epidemics.
