Study shows likely SARS-CoV-2 transmission between different rooms of a quarantine hotel

The results of this study, published in the Emerging Infectious Diseases journal, underline the enhanced transmissibility of the Omicron variants of the virus, which takes advantage of small airstreams to jump to new hosts. "Our findings emphasize the importance of ventilation and integrity of building structure in quarantine facilities."
