Key result
Outdoor environments reduce COVID-19 transmission risk by multiple orders of magnitude compared to common indoor environments, and improved ventilation can reduce risk within indoor environments.

May support ventilation upgrades in clinical spaces; leaves open prospective outcome trials in cardiovascular settings.
Do indoor ventilation improvements and outdoor environments reduce the risk of COVID-19 aerosol transmission compared to common indoor environments?
Outdoor environments and improved indoor ventilation significantly reduce COVID-19 transmission risk by diluting viral loads.
G. Permanyer‐Miralda (2004) studied COVID-19. Improved indoor ventilation and outdoor environments vs. Common indoor environments was evaluated on Aerosol transmission risk of COVID-19. Outdoor environments reduce COVID-19 transmission risk by multiple orders of magnitude compared to common indoor environments, and improved ventilation can reduce risk within indoor environments.
