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 infection therein. The results DO NOT include 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.<br>
<p>The methodology, mathematical equations and parameters of the model are described here: <a href="https://edms.cern.ch/ui/file/2566402/1/CARA_Deterministic_parameters_2020.pdf">https://edms.cern.ch/ui/file/2566402/1/CARA_Deterministic_parameters_2020.pdf</a>.</p>
<p>The methodology, mathematical equations and parameters of the model are described here in the CERN Report: <a href="https://cds.cern.ch/record/2756083"> CERN-OPEN-2021-004</a>.</p>
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.
