Failure to Detect SARS-CoV-2 RNA in the Air During Active Labor in Mothers Who Recently Tested Positive

“…The results of this study correspond to numerous other reports failing to detect a high degree of aerosolized SARS-CoV-2 in rooms with modern ventilation ( 21 , 22 ). Two of the patients were placed in negative pressure rooms, while the other four patients were placed in standard labor and delivery rooms, in a modern hospital building with open space.…”

“One minute it's an airborne virus, then it's a droplet virus, and then it's like nobody really knows…”: Experiences of pandemic PPE amongst Australian healthcare workers

“…Although PPE is only one of the protective strategies undertaken within health services to limit the risk of SARS–CoV-2 transmission, it has retained an emotive focus throughout the pandemic. Beliefs and evidence around types of PPE required to prevent transmission of SARS–CoV-2 have evolved throughout the pandemic [ [2] , [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] , [7] , [8] , [9] ].…”
