MRFF Research Grants
Grant Activity:
Aerosol transmission of SARS-CoV-2 experimentally and in an intensive care setting
Purpose:
This research uses a four-stage, multidisciplinary study design: real world, experimental & airflow modelling. In a hospital Intensive Care Unit (ICU), we will use air and surface sampling methods to detect SARS-COV-2. We will do various experiments in 2 labs to get more understanding of how the virus travels through the air; and will model the movement of virus inside a hospital ICU ward using these data. It will help understand flow of air and virus within ICU and inform mitigation measures.
