The multi-dimensional challenges of controlling respiratory virus transmission in indoor spaces: Insights from the linkage of a microscopic pedestrian simulation and SARS-CoV-2 transmission model
Fig 8
The impact of face masks and ventilation on virus exposure in the case study.
(A,B,C) a scenario where individuals do not wear face masks and an ACH is 0 (A), 3 (B), and 6 (C) per hour in the restaurant, (D, E) a scenario where people wear face masks when moving and an ACH of 3 (D) and 6 (E). The dashed red line indicates the expected exposure of a benchmark contact of 1.5m for 15 minutes.
