Routes To Infection
The routes to infection are many and diverse and it is difficult to quantify the r ole of the environment in the transfer of infection. Some research reports suggest that 19% of contamination is attributed to the immediate environment, others as much as 40%. The greatest risk for people is contamination in the immediate vicinity or from airborne particulates.
We all know that ‘coughs and sneezes spread diseases’ but so do contaminated surfaces.
