    • -The mathematical and physical model simulate the long-range airborne spread of SARS-CoV-2 virus in a finite volume, assuming a homogenous mixture, and estimates the risk of COVID-19 airborne transmission therein. The results DO NOT include (for now) short-range airborne exposure (where the physical distance plays a factor) nor the other known modes of SARS-CoV-2 transmission. Hence, the output from this model is only valid when the other recommended public health & safety instructions are observed, such as adequate physical distancing, good hand hygiene and other barrier measures.
    +The mathematical and physical model simulate the airborne spread of SARS-CoV-2 virus in a finite volume, assuming a homogenous mixture and a two-stage exhaled jet model, and estimates the risk of COVID-19 airborne transmission therein. The results DO NOT include other known modes of SARS-CoV-2 transmission. Hence, the output from this model is only valid when the other recommended public health & safety instructions are observed, such as good hand hygiene and other barrier measures.

    The methodology, mathematical equations and parameters of the model are published here in the CARA paper: Modelling airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 using CARA: risk assessment for enclosed spaces.

    Note that the short-range component of the model has not yet been published.

    The model used is based on scientific publications relating to airborne transmission of infectious diseases, virology, epidemiology and aerosol science. It can be used to compare the effectiveness of different airborne-related risk mitigation measures. diff --git a/cara/apps/templates/base/calculator.form.html.j2 b/cara/apps/templates/base/calculator.form.html.j2 index 0d79ab70..6fd11ed5 100644 --- a/cara/apps/templates/base/calculator.form.html.j2 +++ b/cara/apps/templates/base/calculator.form.html.j2 @@ -622,12 +622,12 @@ The report generated indicates how to avoid exceeding critical concentrations and chains of airborne transmission in spaces such as individual offices, meeting rooms and labs.
