Indoor transmission of SARS-CoV-2 | medRxiv
Indoor transmission of SARS-CoV-2 | medRxiv: Background: By early April 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic had infected nearly one million people and had spread to nearly all countries worldwide. It is essential to understand where and how SARS-CoV-2 is transmitted. Methods: Case reports were extracted from the local Municipal Health Commissions of 320 prefectural cities (municipalities) in China, not including Hubei province, between 4 January and 11 February 2020. We identified all outbreaks involving three or more cases and reviewed the major characteristics of the enclosed spaces in which the outbreaks were reported and associated indoor environmental issues. Results: Three hundred and eighteen outbreaks with three or more cases were identified, involving 1245 confirmed cases in 120 prefectural cities. We divided the venues in which the outbreaks occurred into six categories: homes, transport, food, entertainment, shopping, and miscellaneous. Among the identified outbreaks, 53.8% involved three cases, 26.4% involved four cases, and only 1.6% involved ten or more cases. Home outbreaks were the dominant category (254 of 318 outbreaks; 79.9%), followed by transport (108; 34.0%; note that many outbreaks involved more than one venue

Participate
in the second installment of the ANS Young Members Group Spotlight on
National Labs series, featuring Argonne National Laboratory, on
Thursday, April 30, 1:00 - 2:30 pm EDT.
Learn about Argonne's storied history and how the lab is supporting
key nuclear energy and other initiatives of national and international
significance. The webinar is free and open to all. Register now.
From
the start, Argonne has been at the forefront of research and
innovation. In 1946, as an outgrowth of the Manhattan Project at the
University of Chicago, Argonne was established as a nuclear engineering,
chemistry, and materials laboratory to develop peaceful uses for a
revolutionary new source of energy: nuclear power. Today, nearly every
commercial reactor in existence owes its development to seminal research conducted at Argonne.
Building
on this heritage, Argonne continues its work to advance the safe and
sustainable use of nuclear energy and to apply its nuclear technology
expertise to current and emerging programs. Argonne supports key U.S.
Department of Energy nuclear energy initiatives, including leading the
nation's program for development and demonstration of fast reactor and
fuel recycle technologies that promise to improve the affordability of
nuclear power, enhancing the assurance of safety and security and
minimizing
the quantity of radioactive waste.
