Evidence of the presence of SARS‐CoV‐2 virus in atmospheric air and surfaces of a dedicated COVID hospital

Abstract: The present study was conducted from July 1, 2020 to September 25, 2020 in a dedicated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) hospital in Delhi, India to provide evidence for the presence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) virus in atmospheric air and surfaces of the hospital wards. Swabs from hospital surfaces (patient's bed, ward floor, and nursing stations area) and suspended particulate matter in ambient air were collected by a portable air sampler from the medicine ward, intensiv… Show more

“…To validate the simulated results of the DPM model, a test case was simulated and compared with the result of Han et al (2019) for the ventilation in a room. Further, the results were also validated with an onsite sample collection in a SARS-CoV-2 dedicated hospital performed by Dubey et al (2021) .…”

“…In terms of worldwide research, Bangladesh and Central African Republic are the only least developed countries found to test indoor air for SARS-CoV-2 ( Harries et al, 2020 ; Akter et al, 2021 ; UNDESA, 2021). India, Iran, China, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, Korea, Lebanon, Malaysia, Vietnam, Russia and Nigeria are the only developing countries found to test or speculate for indoor SARS-CoV-2 ( Kwon et al, 2020 ; Adeniran et al, 2021 ; Alkalamouni et al, 2021 ; Bazzazpour et al 2021 ; Chau et al, 2021 ; Dubey et al, 2021 ; Hu et al, 2021; Hu wang et al, 2021 ; Nor et al, 2021 ; Noureddine et al, 2021 ; Passos et al 2021 ; Pochtovyi et al, 2021 ; Salihefendic et al, 2021 ; World Bank, 2021 ).…”
