Scientific evidence shows that aerosols are responsible for the transmission of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID 19. Aerosols are generated from speaking, singing, coughing, sneezing and regular breathing, or through Aerosol-Generating Procedures. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) strongly recommends the implementation of a Respiratory Protection Program wherever Aerosol-Generating Procedures are being generated in the health care setting. Clean air spaces means not having to cut patient schedules keeping your practice in business with complete air disinfection. In this interesting webinar you’ll learn simple airflow dynamics and what you can do now to assure that you, your staff and patients have a safe dental experience.
Learning Objectives
- Discuss the impact of airflow
- Identify airborne transmission risks
- Review transmission mitigation options
