Show abstract
COVID-19 has demonstrated the devastating consequences of the rapid spread of an airborne virus in residential aged care. We report the use of CO2-based ventilation assessment to empirically identify potential "super-spreader" zones within an aged care facility, and determine the efficacy of rapidly implemented, inexpensive, risk reduction measures.
