BREATHE - mitigating airborne threats to health

COVID-19大流行凸显了封闭的室内环境的风险，因为呼吸、说话、咳嗽或打喷嚏产生的气溶胶会积聚。任何空气传播的威胁，无论是传染性病毒还是化学制剂，都会在室内环境中产生更高的暴露。为了减轻这种风险，利用跨学科的专业知识，这项研究将提高准备，减少空气传播威胁的健康影响，告知工人和居住者的安全，建筑设计和健康的未来。

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the risk of closed, indoor settings due to accumulation of aerosols generated from breathing, speaking, coughing or sneezing. Any airborne threat, whether an infectious virus or a chemical agent, will create a higher exposure in indoor settings. To mitigate this risk, using inter-disciplinary expertise, this research will improve preparedness, reduce health impacts of airborne threats, inform worker and occupant safety, building design and healthy futures.
